Laser Cut Wooden Kits

U.Gears and ROKR interactive construction kits are made from high quality plywood. Precision laser cut parts mean that the pieces slot perfectly together without the need for glue or specialist tools – if you do need a tool it’s included in the kit! Everything required is in the beautifully packaged box. A comprehensive assembly guide is included with detailed pictures to follow. The added bonus is that all of these brilliantly engineered kits also move! By blowing, spinning a wheel, pressing a lever or winding a mechanism you can set each of these kits moving.

UK P&P £3.50 – £4.95 depending on the kit.

Tellurion

A Tellurion is a mechanical device which shows the relationship between the Earth, Sun and Moon. By rotating a handle the Earth spins on its axis – one revolution = one day.

An ingenious system allows you to set the Tellurion to the correct day of the year. By turning the handle once a day you can chart the Earth’s progress around the Sun and the Moons lunar cycle as it orbits the Earth.
