Mechanical Engineering Machines & Vehicles
Details
The impact of mechanical engineering is all around us - from tools and devices to bridges and spaceships. This action-packed introductory kit explores the science of machines and vehicles with 20 building projects. A durable, reusable building system can be combined and reconfigured into fun and functional models that include a tightrope walker, elevator, crane, windmill, and all-wheel drive ATV. Use the assembled models to conduct 22 hands-on experiments that demonstrate important lessons like forces, gravity, storing and converting energy. The 80-page, full-color manual provides step-by-step illustrated assembly instructions and clear, thorough explanations of the “why” and “how” of each experiment.
