Giiker Super Slide Teardown

2 hours

Moderate

My Problem

When making the teardown of the Giiker Super Slide, I hadn't realized that there was an extra screw holding in the back shell. While trying to find out what was holding it on, I suddenly heard a lot of magnets moving inside. When I found and removed the final screw I found that none of the screws had been adhered to the shell and that they had all come out of their sockets with no common orientation

My Fix

It went well, I was able to reorient the magnets and test that they were all oriented properly. The device works fine upon reassembly and I am back to happily solving my puzzles

My Advice

If you have one set of magnets, you likely have another set they were meant to attach to. Using this second set, you can get the proper orientation of the loose magnets you have in your scenario. In my case I took a magnetic piece, put it in the play area tray, and inserted magnets if they did not resist one pair at a time until all were inserted
