This Sleigh is a sit in Sleigh + one or two Reindeer.
Craft Wales' "Santa's Sleigh" is freestanding and manufactured from Premium grade 18mm  MDF and produced by one of our state of the art CNC routers that cuts through in only two passes to create a smoother edge for painting.
The reindeer are easy to assemble using a simple slide in design.
If you choose the sleigh with the sign option the three standard choices are :- "Nadolig Llawen", "Merry Christmas" or "Ho Ho HO" (These signs are the correct size to stick to the front panel of the sleigh)
Please note - Merry Christmas will be sent out as the standard sign unless the buyer stipulates a choice.

Supplied ready to paint and decorate or ready painted.

This Sleigh is supplied flat packed for self assembly and is simple to fit together using PVA wood glue (not supplied.)

Instructions – Unpainted Sleigh

Craft Wales suggests that you attempt a trial assembly run prior to painting. Slot all the components into the grooves that fit each component using the illustration for identification. This will provide you with an idea of what you do need to paint and what you will not need to paint. (For example, under the seat, bottom part of back upright, back of seat support, part of the base and one side of decorative pieces do not require painting) DO NOT GLUE AT THIS STAGE.

Instructions – Painted and Unpainted Sleigh

Craft Wales suggests that a soft surface (to protect the painted sleigh’s surface) is used to place the one side of the sleigh flat on the floor - with the grooves facing upwards. (As with the unpainted sleigh, a trial run is suggested prior to any glue being used on the painted sleigh). Please use the diagram supplied with the component descriptions to identify which pieces are intended to fit in which slots.

·        Prior to adding any PVA glue – prepare yourself with a clean, damp (not wet) cloth in the event of any overspill of glue so that the sleigh can be wiped immediately.

Once you are confident that all pieces fit correctly you can then run sufficient PVA in each of the channels, using a small brush or plastic glue spreader, and place all the sections together. Ensure that all the internal parts are fitted to the first side panel prior to placing the second panel on to them. Once all the internal sections have been fitted to the first panel correctly, you should then run glue to the channels of the second panel using a small brush or plastic glue spreader to ensure all parts of the grooves are well coated and to help prevent overspill. Place the second panel on top. Place the screws provided in the pre-drilled holes and ensure that they line up correctly with the pilot holes in the back upright (D), the front upright (E)  and the under seat support (F). Use clamps to hold in place or alternatively place some heavy items on top until glue has dried.
