## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are all doors numbered and sequenced so that you can have the radio finished on Christmas Eve?**
A: yes

**Q: This does have doors,  the bit that appears to have no door is the outer sleeve of the product.  You need to unwrap it?**
A: Yes it has doors, but you’re right that there is an outer sleeve and the doors are on the inside. And you cannot really give it as a traditional advent calendar with a ‘surprise’ behind each door, because the outer sleeve gives ALL the details of the advent calendar on the packaging. 

So I tried removing the sleeve but the inner part is not particularly structured (if that makes sense) - you need the outer sleeve on to give it better structural integrity. And there is a loose instruction guide inside. So I will gift it with the outer sleeve and the recipient will know exactly what they’re getting.

**Q: Mine hasn’t come with an instruction booklet 🤦🏼‍♀️ How can I get hold of one?**
A: Dear Marie! 

Unfortunately, I don't know why there is no user guide in the package, but I found videos on Youtube.

I wish you a Merry Christmas!

**Q: Day 1 has instructions to feed cables through the plastic underneath which is impossible - you can't access underneath?!  Any ideas?**
A: Dear Nicola!

I found the video below on YouTube to see if it helps!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recipient loved it
*by N***W on 19 July 2025*

Excellent. Exactly what I was expecting and up to expectations. Recommended for anyone. Great quality.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unique, fun and interesting advent calendar
*by L***X on 2 December 2024*

Never seen anything like this before and it does need some crafting on the first day to get set up. I bought it for a friend and he really loved it. Something different and fun to pass a bit of time running up to Christmas. It's good quality and I think it was good value for money too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great kit!
*by F***A on 2 December 2024*

We’ve all had fun building these circuits, so much more fun than some of the other calendars!
