UGears is proud to deliver the Variator as part of the STEM LAB collection. This model serves as an interactive, educational tool to exhibit the inner workings of a CVT, otherwise known as continuous variable transmission. After complete assembly, the Variator allows you to comprehend one of the most essential components needed to allow motors to run smoothly. \n\nWhen used in real life, CVT utilizes a steel belt that runs between two pulleys. In order to continuously vary gear ratios, CVT simultaneously alters the diameter of the drive pulley and the driven pulley. The drive pulley is responsible for transferring the torque from the engine, while the driven pulley is responsible for transferring torque to the wheels. CVT has become increasingly popular in any vehicle or machine requiring smooth transitions between multiple gears, such as cars, scooters, and conveyors. \n\nThe mechanical Variator is a working replica of a belt-driven friction cone CVT. In general, cone CVT alters the gear ratio by moving a belt up and down a conical drum. Power up the Variator by spinning the reducer, which directly rotates the drive cone pulley. The rubber band belt, which runs around both pulleys, will transfer the rotation of the drive pulley to the driven cone pulley, showcasing the simultaneous rotations of both pulleys. You can alter the gears using the transmission fork to observe how the speed varies between the drive and driven pulleys. Because of the iconic skeletal framework of the UGears Variator, you can openly observe the operation of the entire cone CVT mechanism without dirtying your hands with engine oil. \n\nThe Variator building kit comes equipped with the following components: key, drive cone pulley, driven cone pulley, reducer, belt, pedal, body, and transmission fork. All 104 parts are made with eco-friendly, high-quality plywood precut with laser precision, allowing you to easily assemble this model without the need for glue, tools, or extra cutting. In just two hours, you will be able to discover the inner workings of the Variator. As an added bonus, this model kit comes equipped with a QR-code that gives you access to a learning guide for the Variator, along with a special AR UGears application that demonstrates how the Variator is used in real life. \n\nWhether or not you are a motor enthusiast, the UGears STEM LAB Variator will inspire you to learn more about the intricate mechanisms that occur under the hood of your car. The hands-on assembly allows you to unconsciously improve your fine motor skills, while the completed build stimulates your mind. With both its aesthetic and fun appeal, the mechanical Variator is a great gift or personal treat for anyone.

The new Automaton Cyclist is a bold and intricate model that embodies the competitive spirit of the classic Tour De France bike series. The assembly of this winning model cycles you away from the pit of boredom and propels you into the realm of champions. \n\nEchoing the iconic steampunk designs of the UGears brand, this mechanical model features a realistic cyclist that sits atop an elegant trophy adorned with the quintessional vine wreath. The trophy base artfully encases the working flywheel mechanism that allows the model's determined cyclist to accurately pedal the bicycle and rotate its wheels. With its witty skeletal design, you can visually appreciate the inner workings that propel the Automaton Cyclist. \n\nTo work the simple flywheel, easily pull the lever on the side of the model and watch your cyclist move. The flywheel mechanism propels your cyclist using accumulated kinetic energy. To change the momentum of the flywheel, all you need to do is adjust the weight. To increase the weight, this model comes equipped with a special slot that can fit a coin or any metal tidbit. When you add weight, the lever becomes more resistant to pulling; however, the cyclist pedals longer after you stop pumping the lever. The lever is expectedly much easier to pull when there is no weight added, but the cyclist will pedal for a shorter time after you stop pumping. This model is a great hands-on learning device for children to visually and manually see how the flywheel works. \n\nAll 189 parts of this model kit is made with high-quality, eco-friendly plywood that is precut with laser precision for a smoother assembly experience. No additional tools or glue is required for building this amazing Automaton Cyclist. Our comprehensive step-by-step manual is straightforward and easy to follow by anyone aged 14 years and above.

There is a certain romance to the feeling of sitting high atop an 18-wheeler, traveling all around the country. Whether you drive late nights or early mornings, work for a company or are an owner\/operator, or even if you just like trucks but have never actually driven one, you can't deny the appeal of so much freedom. UGears wants to bring that freedom to you with its Heavy Boy Truck VM-03 model kit. Sit back and reminisce about your time on the road as you spend hours building this highly detailed, fully functional model.\n\nFunctionality\n\nThe UGears Heavy Boy Truck VM-03 model kit is a fully functioning vehicle complete with a tractor, truck trailer (model sold separately), and hitch. The wind-up truck uses a rubber band-based motor with an R6 engine that allows it to drive up to 16 feet with a single crank. A working transmission system provides movement that can go forward or backward, or you can idle it to get a good look at the inner workings in motion. When you do decide you want your model to move, use the front-sprung wheels and working steering wheel to choose the direction you want it to go. The traditional hitch system connects your tractor and trailer together, just like the real thing.\n\nAesthetics\n\nThe aesthetic appeal of the UGears Heavy Boy Truck VM-03 kit leaves nothing to be desired either. The robust long-hauler truck features a detailed design that recreates all the elements you've come to expect in a real-life tractor-trailer rig. The steampunk style means you see everything going on inside your working model, and large pipes, two sets of side mirrors, and the realistic hitch system ensure its authenticity when it comes to looks. UGears didn't skimp on the small details of this model kit either. The tractor features a ladder to a cabin, a sleep station, and even a television set. In the back, you'll find a shovel and a gas can.

Get ready for measured challenge and enlightenment with this stylized educational model that makes learning the essentials and principles of working pendulums easy and entertaining for all ages. Whether you're interested in the mechanism that makes mechanical clocks tick or the element that keeps metronomes steady and musicians in tempo, the Pendulum is sure to give you hours of fun in construction and exploration.\n\nNow known as one of the most basic and reliable time-measuring mechanisms, the pendulum was first studied by Galileo Galilei, an Italian engineer at the end of the 16th century, who described how the mechanism kept oscillations, or movements back and forth at a constant speed, consistent. A Dutch physicist, Christiaan Huygens, built on Galileo’s work by using a pendulum in a mechanical clock in the 17th century. In addition to clocks and metronomes, pendulums are also used today in geological surveying, seismography, sports, and laboratory research in mechanics and physics.\n\nStart out by building your Pendulum model using the Pocket Model’s Study Guide to discover the principles of a working mechanical pendulum. You’ll surely admire the precise inner mechanisms of the model, such as the anchor escapement that controls the frequency of oscillations, the weight, the scrape-wheel, the gearing, the rubber-band, and the ratchet and pawl. The working model has multiple ways to control the frequency of oscillations, and you’ll have fun learning how to use the weight of the pendulum bob, the vertical position of the weight on the pendulum, and the tension of the rubber band to control the pendulum’s movement back and forth.\n\nAfter successful construction, lose yourself in Augmented Reality to discover how the pendulum is used to make a clock tick. Interacting with your Pendulum via your UGears application, study the working principle of your model. You’ll observe that the force of gravity and the potential energy of the rubber band work together to keep the amplitude of oscillation constant with the rubber band compensating for the pendulum’s oscillations’ kinetic energy loss. For additional enrichment, make sure to spend time reviewing the included creation story and engaging in the included tasks in the interactive study guide.\n\nEach Pendulum model allows for self-assembly from the parts, which are pulled out from wooden boards according to easy-to-follow manual instruction. The models don’t require glue or cutting, which makes them a perfect model for younger children to enjoy with their adult scientific exploration partners or for teenagers to build and use with some guided help from their parents. For additional fun and customization, paint your model with watercolor paints. This high-quality model kit promises hours of family entertainment and bonding.\n\nModel Size: 4.5 x 3.3 x 6.6 in\nPackage size: 8.1 x 7.4 x 2.5 in\nNumber of parts: 92\nLevel: Easy\nAssembly Time: 2 hours\nRecommended Age: 8+\nMade in Ukraine","brand":"UGears","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":43229640786014,"sku":"owj1787979739604","price":20.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3567\/4718\/files\/stem-lab-pendulum_1.webp?v=1787979746"},{"product_id":"wild-west-gatling-gun","title":"Wild West Gatling Gun","description":"","brand":"Metal Earth","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":43229641539678,"sku":"vpi1787979751495","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3567\/4718\/files\/wild-west-gatling-gun_1.png?v=1787979761"},{"product_id":"ugears-safe","title":"UGears Safe","description":"Looking for the perfect project for hours of creative engineering?

For years, we've been hearing the same question again and again from our loyal customers: \"Can Ugears create a working clock model kit, one that actually keeps accurate time?\" A working mechanical wooden clock has long been our #1 \"most-requested\" new design. Your dream has also been our dream, and our team of dedicated Ugears engineers and designers has been working hard to bring this shared dream into reality. Finally, the wait is over. Ugears is proud to present the Aero Clock, a fully-functioning DIY wall clock with a pendulum.\n\n\n\nThe Aero Clock isn't just a 3D wooden mechanical model or a pretty showpiece. The Ugears Clock is an actual working clock that you can build yourself, mount to a wall, wind up, then watch as the seconds, minutes, and hours tick by. The Aero Clock is an ingenious puzzle and DIY clock mechanism, unlike any other clock. It is a lovely piece of precise engineering that reveals the workings of a weighted pendulum clock to builders and viewers alike. Like all Ugears models, it also has that extra touch of whimsy, to captivate and charm our growing legion of fans.\n\nThis simple-yet-elegant Ugears clock is driven by the force of gravity pulling down a weighted bag (you can fill the bag with sand or salt). Raise the bag on its pulleys to wind the clock. As the weight slowly descends, it rotates a drive gear, which then rotates an escape wheel through a reducer. The clock features an adjustable weighted pendulum that interacts with the escape wheel through the steady tick-tock of the anchor mechanism. You can adjust the clock's ticking action to the second, by sliding the pendulum's top and bottom weights. The reducer also transmits rotation to an hour disc and a minute disc. One of the interesting features of our Aero Clock is that time is not read with rotating hands on a clock face, but rather a fixed pointer indicates time on the slowly-rotating, numbered hour and minute discs. Moreover, these discs rotate counterclockwise—did you know that before standardization, some clocks moved clockwise while others moved counterclockwise? In the role of \"cuckoo,” the Ugears Aero Clock features a model hot air balloon. The suspended balloon rapidly descends when the hour strikes, then slowly rises again over the course of the next hour.\n\nThe theme of the Aero Clock is early aeronautics. Take a trip back in time to the dawn of flight and the \"balloon-mania\" that seized France and England in 1783 on the occasion of the first free aerial voyage in a balloon. This was followed two years later by the first aerial crossing of the English Channel by intrepid aeronauts Jean-Pierre Blanchard and John Jeffries. We love this wooden model clock's steampunk sensibility and spirit of adventure, and we think you will too! Imagine yourself a discoverer of new horizons and a conqueror of the four winds. The casing and intriguing wooden clock mechanism represent an airbase located among the clouds, where zephyrs blow and filtered rays of sunlight dapple the machinery, while you, in the role of aeronaut, launch a new voyage of exploration on the hour.\n\nThe Ugears wooden model clock kit celebrates the role of clocks in exploration. Did you know the problem of calculating longitude, critical to accurate navigation at sea, was solved with a clock? The idea was proposed by Dutch mathematician Gemma Frisius in 1530, but it wasn't until the mid-18th century when English clockmaker John Harrison developed a series of shipboard clocks so precise (accurate to within a ⅕ of a second per day) that ship captains could, at last, calculate their position at sea to within a few nautical miles. By knowing the exact time back in London (Greenwich Meridian Time, or GMT), and calculating the time at current position with celestial observation, navigators could calculate where they were on the earth's surface. Latitude had been solved by the Phoenicians as early as 600 B.C. with celestial reckoning—measuring the altitude of the sun at noon, or the angle made between the North Star (or other navigational stars) and the horizon. But the longitude problem would bedevil explorers for another 2,000 years. Harrison was eventually awarded the £20,000 first prize (roughly $1.5 million today) established in Parliament's Longitude Act of 1714, after demonstrating the accuracy of his masterful clocks at sea. Now you too can become a clockmaker, with the Ugears Aero Clock model kit!\n\nReleased at a moment when the world seems to have slowed down, the Ugears Aero Clock, a wooden wall clock with a pendulum that you build yourself, is both time-full and timeless in its simple elegance. This beautiful and functional wooden wall clock model is for horologists, for hobbyists, for explorers, for creatives and romantics of every stripe, anyone who is ready for new challenges and ready to take risks. If you've ever gazed up at the sky and thought, \"I want to be there!\" or looked at a pendulum clock and wondered, \"How does that work?\" then the Ugears Aero Clock is for you.\n\nAs you build the Aero Clock, a wooden wall clock with a pendulum, you will learn the basic principles behind clockworks, how the steadying influence of a swinging pendulum operates through a rocking anchor, locking and unlocking the gears on an escapement one second at a time, thereby regulating the (slow) descent of a weight as it drives both power gears and timekeeping gears.\n\nThe Ugears' Aero Clock with a pendulum is a marvelous puzzle and the perfect family project. When you work together to assemble this DIY wooden clock model kit, you will experience the satisfaction of building something together and not just any model, but an actual functioning timepiece. Afterward, you'll have a beautiful object for the home, something your family can enjoy together as time goes by.\n\nThe Ugears Aero Clock with a pendulum is a new and exciting addition to the Ugears collection of fascinating mechanical models, 3D puzzles, game accessories, wooden puzzle boxes, children's toys, and education STEM Lab model kits.\n\nModel Size: 29.5 x 18.5 x 6.5 in\nPackage size: 14.9 x 6.7 x 2.0 in\nNumber of parts: 320\nLevel: Hard\nAssembly Time: 11 hours\nRecommended Age: 14+\nMade in Ukraine","brand":"UGears","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":43229641900126,"sku":"vnt1787979758770","price":55.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3567\/4718\/files\/aero-clock_1.jpg?v=1787979766"},{"product_id":"mechanical-flower","title":"Mechanical Flower","description":"The UGears Mechanical Flower model kit is the perfect gift for a loved one.

Well, make room on the shelf, because a powerful new mechanical model just muscled its way into the Ugears Automotive collection. Introducing the Drift Cobra Racing Car model kit, a beautifully styled, two-seat convertible—our twist on what may be the most revered sports car of all time: the Shelby Cobra 427. The Cobra 427, produced between 1965-67, had a 7.0 liter 450-510 horsepower engine, did 0-60 mph in just over 4 seconds, and had a top speed of 185 mph.\n\nCarroll Shelby, a former race car driver, and automotive designer was hired by the Ford Motor Co. to develop a high-performance racer able to compete with the dominant Italian race team of Ferrari. The Americans' four consecutive victories at the prestigious Le Mans 24-hour race between 1966-69, in Ford GT40s, is the stuff of legend. More recently, it was the subject of the Oscar-winning 2019 film, \"Ford v Ferrari,\" starring Matt Damon as Shelby and Christian Bale as Ken Miles, the ace driver for the 1966 Ford team. The success of the cars coming out of Shelby's surfside Venice, California shop was the crest of a wave of American high-performance supercars or muscle cars, characterized by powerful V8 motors placed into relatively lightweight, mass-produced, rear-wheel-drive chassis. The Shelby Cobra stands out as an American icon, perhaps the greatest muscle car and most \"posterized\" car in history.\n\nDesigned for drag racing but street legal, muscle cars offer incredible automotive power at a relatively affordable price point. The scarcity and unbelievable auction prices today of some of these classic street beasts are due in no small part to the fact that they were often more cars than their owners could handle, resulting in frequent crashes. Muscle cars have squared off in many an illegal street race, sometimes with ownership papers on the line (another way to lose your muscle car!). In that spirit, why not convene a gathering of model-building friends, show off your newly-built Ugears Drift Cobra Racing Cars, put your car modeling prowess to the test, and race for pinks! But remember: the first rule of Ugears race club is: you do not talk about Ugears race club. The second rule of the Ugears race club is: you do not talk about Ugears race club!\n\nDriven by a powerful spring motor, the Ugears Drift Cobra racing car has the fastest team of horses under the hood of any mechanical wooden model we know. The model is wound by means of a ratchet knob under the chassis. Before winding your 3-D wooden Drift Cobra model racing car, move the air filter that protrudes from the hood toward the windshield, and flip the switch in front of the passenger-side seat into the Lock position (parallel to the door). Now twist the ratchet underneath the car's body. After 6 to 6.5 turns of the knob the spring is fully loaded, and — vroom! vroom! — your racer is ready to roar! Set the gear shift lever, located between the driver and passenger seats, to the desired position (Reverse, Neutral, Drive). To start the model, set it down on a flat surface, slide the air filter forward, and watch your Cobra lay rubber in a spin-out (start with the wheels turned to one side), do circles, or speed down the track in a straight line.\n\nWe think this 3D puzzle \/ DIY model is a beauty, with its fat tires, bulging curves (thanks to pieces that are precision laser-cut into fine 1mm plywood), a big open mouth up front, and open-air convertible design. This wooden car's moving parts include turning front wheels, doors that open, and a hood and trunk that can be raised. Instead of a rubber band motor we've used a powerful spring mechanism to provide the \"muscle\" in this racer and extend the model's usable life. The ratchet mechanism means you don't have to hold the knob the entire time you're winding the model—potential energy is stored with each twist, without slippage, until the strong internal spring is fully loaded.\n\nTo put the model in \"drift mode,\" turn the front wheels fully to one side or the other, set it down on a smooth surface such as tile, and watch as the model peels out in a sideways skid (ideally, your model should make a half to a full revolution before continuing forward, depending on the driving surface and turn angle of the wheels). When the wheels are set in their straight position, the model covers a lot of ground—8 meters or more! Set the wheels in a gentler turn, or put the racer down on a less slippery surface, and watch your Drift Cobra complete two or three full circles.\n\nThe DIY model kit for the Drift Cobra Racing Car includes 370 parts, with an estimated assembly time of nine hours, and is rated Advanced level. Why not take a page out of Carroll Shelby's book and experience the pride and satisfaction of building a beautiful, functional automotive machine with your own hands. Everything you need for this challenging but doable DIY wooden puzzle project comes right in the box: high-quality plywood boards with precision laser-cut pieces that you snap out then snap together without the need of glue or special tools, a metal spring that powers the mechanism, and of course a set of detailed, illustrated instructions in 11 languages.\n\nUgears model kits appeal to builders and hobbyists who love quality, clever design, and who appreciate ingenious mechanical elements with real-world analogs. The Ugears Drift Cobra Racing Car is a great DIY idea and perfect gift idea for car lovers among your circle of friends and family. Anyone who loved the film Ford v Ferrari, who loves car modeling, DIY projects, 3D puzzles, or who appreciates outstanding mechanical and aesthetic design, is going to love the Drift Cobra Racing Car.\n\nSize: 10.1 x 8.3 x 4.5 in \nPackage size: 14.9 x 6.7 x 1.3 in\nNumber of parts: 370\nLevel: Hard \nAssembly Time: 9 hours\nRecommended Age: 14+","brand":"fabulagifts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43229642621022,"sku":"wlg1787979772469","price":38.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3567\/4718\/files\/drift-cobra-racing-car_1.webp?v=1787979780"},{"product_id":"butterfly","title":"Butterfly","description":"Get ready for a new and exciting challenge! The UGears Butterfly comes as 168 pre-cut pieces that are ready to be assembled into natural beauty. The butterfly not only looks elegant on its own but can also be wound with a simple rubber band motor to bring it to life with gentle wing beats that beautifully imitate the flutters of its living counterparts. No glue, tools, or external power sources are required; the kit comes with everything needed. Since the pieces fully interlock, the model can be built right away. The final result of the construction is an elegant mechanical model with a tempting flower. Since the kit is made of real wood, it has a natural woodsy scent, which only heightens the delicate patterns of the leaves and other natural wonders.\n\nThe mechanical Butterfly model kit is perfect as an IQ game for adults and children over 14 years of age. Construction is also enjoyable as a family project, and it usually takes about 3 hours to complete. Start by gently removing the pre-cut natural plywood pieces from the sheets. Follow the included instructions or a UGears online tutorial to press each piece into place. Each section, the butterfly, stand, and flower, is built separately and then attached with nearly invisible wooden clasps to keep everything in place. Once the rest of the model is built, choose between the pre-colored wings or color on your own to personalize the project. The beige wings come primed and ready for paint or other media.\n\nAfter the challenge of putting together all those pieces, enjoy watching the tiny motor work to flutter the wings and twitch the legs. A crank at the base of the abdomen winds up the rubber band. Pressing together the butterfly's back legs releases the latch to allow the creature to take flight, but its flight can be paused by the counter motion, securing the motor in place with a touch. Craft paper flutters with stunning similarity to natural butterflies' wings, while strategic pins in the stand allow the model to achieve a full range of motion. The meager exterior of the insect's body allows young engineers and creative observers to note the workings of each gear, inspiring hours of imagination.\n\nFrom intricate military models to gentle floral pieces, UGears specializes in creating engaging projects that anyone can enjoy. Each 3D wooden butterfly puzzle kit is carefully designed and produced so that it is eco-friendly and beautiful. Intricate, yet durable, the pieces hold up to many years of admiration. If the construction proves too difficult, help is always available from online step-by-step guides to free part replacement in case of emergencies or accidental breakage.

If you want to put together a little piece of Americana and display it proudly somewhere in your home, the UGears Bike VM-02 is just what you need. \n\nUGears designed the VM-02 bike to look just like the choppers that made so many people fall in love with motorcycles in the first place. Not only do we use high-grade sustainably sourced wood to make sure you get a quality product, we use lasers to cut each piece to make sure your model fits together perfectly. And when it comes to all the little details such as the bulky gas tank and perfectly round headlight, we make sure it's all perfect.\n\nOf course, putting together a chopper motorcycle model kit wouldn't be a whole lot of fun if there was nothing you could do with it once it's complete. UGears specializes in mechanical models, which means the UGears Bike VM-02 is far more than a display piece that will collect dust on a shelf. As a matter of fact, this model is designed to be fully functional so you can give it a test drive when you're done putting it together. The rubber band motor we designed for this bike is capable of propelling it up to 10 feet on a single winding, making the UGears Bike VM-02 a great model for children and adults alike.\n\nThis classic motorcycle model might not be quite as zippy as a real motorcycle, but there are still a lot of fun things you can do with your UGears Bike VM-02. If you've got two bikes, you can set them up side by side and race to the finish line. Another fun way to enjoy your bike is to wind it up, watch where it stops, and make a mark. You can keep trying this in various locations and on different terrains to find out what makes your UGears motorcycle tick and see just how far you can get it to go.\n\nDespite looking almost identical to a real chopper-style motorcycle, the UGears Bike VM-02 is fairly simple when it comes to assembly. At UGears, we make sure we cut each piece precisely so everything fits when you're putting your model together. On top of that, we include illustrated instructions in 10 languages including English, German, French, Spanish, and Chinese to make sure you have a relevant step-by-step guide to putting your model together. While this bike is designed to be somewhat easy to put together, it's not recommended for very young children, and the full assembly takes a few hours.\n\nSize: 10.1 x 3.3 x 4.1 in \nPackage size: 14.6 x 6.7 x 1.2 in\nNumber of parts: 189\nLevel: Intermediate \nAssembly Time: 3-4 hours\nRecommended Age: 14+\nMade in Ukraine","brand":"UGears","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":43229642981470,"sku":"pyo1787979782876","price":25.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3567\/4718\/files\/bike-vm02_1.webp?v=1787979792"},{"product_id":"random-generator","title":"Random Generator","description":"Has your magic 8 ball been failing you? If shaking a ball of liquid isn't giving you the answers to your most critical yes or no questions, the UGears STEM LAB Random Generator might be the problem-solving magic you've been looking for. You might have questions about how to build it, but once you've followed the step-by-step construction manual, any other simple question can be solved with the simple push of a button. Designed with smooth gears and completely random results, this 3D model helps you make your decisions by scientific randomness instead of magical randomness.\n\nCareful physics has gone into the design of each Random Generator. Each piece is made from carefully laser-cut sustainably-sourced plywood that comes with a fresh real-wood scent. Pop out the pieces and gently sand or wax interlocking parts to get just the right fit in case of small deviations. By following the included paper manual or an easy online video guide, you can have your Random Generator ready to answer your questions within about two hours. There are six possible answers including \"yes,\" \"try again,\" \"later\" and the ever-reliable \"do it.\" There is a precise 1\/6th chance that any one of these answers comes out on top thanks to the careful symmetry of an internal octahedron. The eco-friendly materials are refreshing after decades of plastic models. The model is almost entirely made of wood with just a metal ball and a rubber band to help power the drive gear. It comes with 160 parts and is recommended for anyone age eight and up, though younger children might enjoy working on this project with a bit of adult assistance.\n\nThere are a number of scientific elements in this mechanical generator model, making a great science fair project or activity for brainy young scientists and older explorers. The mechanism includes ways to explore weight and balance with an internal metal ball that drives the random chances. A button and clutch work with potential energy to set the mechanism spinning and a drive wheel keeps the thrust evenly distributed to avoid predictable answers. Scientific minds can also explore concepts including a three-axle gear, internal octahedron, overrunning clutch, and basic geometry. Although not every kid is as excited about STEM projects, giving your young ones some base examples is a great way to expand growing minds to the possible applications of math and science in real-world situations.\n\nEven though this kit is an ideal IQ game for kids and teens, anyone can enjoy the simple pleasure of solving these simple puzzles and physics experiments. UGears is always available to help out in case of lost or broken pieces, ensuring that your project is enjoyable and beautiful even if it takes some time to come together.\n\nModel Size: 6.8 x 4.8 x 5.2 in\nPackage size: 8.1 x 7.4 x 2.5 in\nNumber of parts: 160\nLevel: Easy\nAssembly Time: 2 hours\nRecommended Age: 8+\nMade in Ukraine","brand":"UGears","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":43229643145310,"sku":"yde1787979786021","price":18.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3567\/4718\/files\/random-generator_1.webp?v=1787979794"},{"product_id":"black-hawk-metal-earth","title":"Black Hawk Metal Earth","description":"Sikorsky® UH-60 Black Hawk® Since being introduced to the Army in 1979 this medium-lift, multi-role helicopter is now used in more than 28 countries world-wide.

This is one truck that won’t get hidden away in the toy box, however. Its intricate design and sophisticated mechanisms make it a centerpiece that you can openly display and admire. Gears, pistons, shafts, and steering components all move, and the truck does too when you crank it up. Made of 420 individual parts, this model is more challenging to assemble than others, but it is well worth the effort and gives you a sense of pride in your accomplishment.\n\nThe four-cylinder engine runs on rubber-band power using a system of synchronized gears. To see the engine “run,” you should first open the folding hood or \"bonnet\" as it once was known. Thumb the lever on the cab’s top several times to crank up the engine, you can release it and watch in amazement as pistons move up and down, simulating the actions of a real engine. Open the truck door to view and turn the fully functioning steering wheel and guide the vehicle right or left. Next, move the gear shift into the drive or reverse position depending on which direction you want the truck to travel. The gas pedal works, too; push it down to set the truck in motion and watch as it zooms along the ground.\n\nBy implementing the visible-gear design of steampunk fantasy machines, this truck captures features of early- to mid-20th century trucks, complete with a rail-lined flatbed for hauling goods or produce. Made of premium plywood that offers the smell of fresh-cut wood, each piece is laser cut for a perfect fit. Parts are carved with realistic details, including full-tread tires, wheels with hubcaps and lug nuts, headlights with covers, and stamped-steel running boards to help the driver and passengers get into and out of the cab without slipping. Even the license plate is as authentic as possible, featuring numbers and letters.\n\nThe kit includes everything you need to put this truck together. No glue or hardware is needed, as each piece is precision-cut to fit tightly together without the need for any fastening aids. In an effort to be eco-friendly, the plywood used in the UGears Truck UGM-11 is also made from sustainable sources.
