Fun for Future Engineers -- Hands-on construction and creation of four simple machines is a fun introduction into building and the mechanics of hydraulic machines. -- Using all pre-cut pieces, glue, and simple instructions, you can make a Platform Lifter, Scissor Lift, Cherry Picker, and Excavator. -- The Platform Lifter provides an excellent example of how we use technology to move people and materials around. -- The Scissor Lift uses the same principles and construction that is common to industrial scissor lifters. -- The Cherry Picker is similar to the ones often mounted on truck beds to steadily lift people and parts to great heights. -- The Excavator kit uses first and third class lever like the ones used in trucks at most construction sites. -- Each working model uses water instead of hydraulic fluid. No batteries are needed to power these models. -- Recommended for ages 8 and up.
- 4 Projects in 1 STEM Kit – Build and explore four fully functional hydraulic machines: a scissor lift, platform lifter, crane, and excavator arm – all powered by water
- Fun Hands-On Learning – Introduce kids to the power of hydraulics and basic engineering principles like levers, force, and motion in a fun and interactive way
- No Batteries, No Mess – Uses simple water-based hydraulics. Safe, clean, and eco-friendly. No batteries, or special tools required
- STEM Education at Its Best – Ideal for classrooms, homeschool projects, science fairs, and curious builders aged 8+. Supports curriculum in physics and mechanical engineering
- Designed for kids aged 8+ who love hands-on projects and problem-solving. It’s a great gift for birthdays and ideal for budding engineers, both boys and girls. Also enjoyable for adults as a unique desk toy or hobby project
