It’s work
Spent hours trying to get it to work. I know, part of the fun until it turns into frustration. Spent weeks on it and we are close but still can’t get it to stay levitated but for a split sec.

A very cool toy! 1-star reviews are completely unjustified.
I'm so glad that I bought this toy with the assumption that the 1-star reviewers are just not putting in the effort or simply can't figure it out because that is exactly what I discovered. The instructions weren't as clear as they could have been, but still, this toy was pretty simple to figure out. In fact, I'm creating a YouTube tutorial video for it and will link it once it's complete. Basic instructions: (1) Make sure you can spin a top. Easy for most. Just spin a top. (2) Keep adjusting the base piece so that it's as level to the ground as you can get it. You can figure out which pegs need adjusting based on the direction that the spinning top falls AFTER it has levitated some. You actually have to get the top to spin and lift it off the platform to see this. It seems like one of the other reviewers didn't even understand that they had to lift it themselves with the clear plastic piece. (3) Once it stays up for a second or so, you know it's as level as it needs to be, but it will likely be too light (or too heavy, but i find that it's easier to understand when it's level by having too little weight at first). So you start adding weights to it and try again. If it bobs up and down and falls off, it's too light. If it won't levitate at all, it's too heavy. Adjust weight little by little (took me like 5-10min) and voila! You'll have a floating toy in no time! Seriously, it took me less than an hour to read instructions, understand what needed to be done, and it worked. I can get it to float easily on every attempt so long as the top spins (which I can get it to spin maybe 1 of every 3 attempts). It's easy. I'm even creating a child's tutorial on YouTube for it which I'll link in this description once it's complete in a couple of weeks. Don't listen to the 1-star reviews.

Fun & educational, but disappointing end
Firstly, this is an excellent toy to get for a kid (or adult) who enjoys the more tedious affairs of life and loves the feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment. It's a great introduction to paleontology or archeology, and may even awaken the inner explorer. The tools are decent quality, though the chisel showed significant bowing after being hammered multiple times, and the earpieces of the safety glasses became quite uncomfortable to me. Forget about using the brush for anything but future digging after you're finished with this project. The clay the skeleton is encased in is very soft and compliant, easily broken away with little effort. The skeleton itself is made of strong enough material (plastic) that it would take a purposeful attempt to actually break it, so damage done during excavation shouldn't be too much of a worry. Some useful tips if you choose to purchase this product: you can use the box it came in as your work area to keep things clean, just cut the front off and keep the side tabs taped together. If you're having trouble with clay stuck inside smaller parts of the skeleton, you can use the opposite end of the brush to scrape and loosen it. If you want to keep your model, use super or hot glue to stick the parts together more permanently. Unfortunately - and this may or may not be the fault of the company so much as possible warping from the clay - the model is of very poor quality (at least mine was). The pieces fit together awkwardly and the resulting T-rex looks as if it were in a horrible, tragic accident before becoming a fossil, body twisted grotesquely to the point it can't even stand on its own legs. My excitement built up during my diligent digging was cast away upon assembly of this pitiful "trophy." I suppose one could figure out a method of stretching and reshaping the plastic to force it to look presentable, but I found it hardly worth my time. So into the trash it went. Overall it was a pleasant and enlightening experience, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who likes to keep physical mementos of such experiences.

Your kids will love it. You will, too. Bring supplementary tools.
I was looking for something fun to do with the kiddies and remembered seeing this or something like it in a museum gift shop. Immediately found this one with Amazon search tools and bought it on the basis of the Smithsonian brand. I bought a competitor, too. The plaster is neutrally colored and despite some worries I found that it washed right off the concrete on my dad's porch. The kids of course loved the digging and especially the brushing away of dust from the bones, which is of course the part that makes even a grown adult feel more like Robert Bakker. In that connection, provided tools are as I recall a little paintbrush, a round wooden "chisel," and a very light wooden hammer. These are adequate to the task of excavation, but it will take a while. For younger children you may wish to consider using a cold chisel and a light "real" hammer despite the risk of damaging the "fossils," which latter are by the way made of a rather softish plastic. The skeleton is to my moderately practiced eyeballs basically anatomically correct (at least one competitor has the ilia reversed) and stands up reasonably well to moderate playtime use by juvenile hominids once assembled. The wee ones needed a little help assembling the skeleton, which is in about a dozen pieces. Recreational disarticulations can be addressed effectively with application of a small amount of plastic cement or similar. Overall, a great time and not too big a mess. Good I'd say for basically-normal kids from about 5 to about 15. As there is to my knowledge nobody in my immediate family who is basically normal, I'll note that it's probably good for nerds ranging from 3 to 30.
