Description
42 laser-cut bones that create a miniature skeleton figure which stands about 2 inches tall. A normal human skeleton has 206 bones, so we’ve cut the assembly work by 80%!
This kit makes a tiny human skeleton from a postage stamp sized laser cut set of bones. Assembly generally takes 45-60 minutes.
It fits in the human display dome found here, and in your closet, no matter how many skeletons you have in there already.

This model was developed with generous support through Kickstarter from Tink Edwards, Dann Kriss, FATblades, and Lewis Terry. Thank you!
So tiny, so wonderful! Will definitely order more.
The friends I ordered these for were psyched. I’m back ordering more skeletons for other friends, now!
I’m very impressed with this product, and it arrived neatly packed and in pristine condition. Thanks!
