Wooden Mechanical Model - World Globe, age 14+ SHRINKWRAPPED
€59.99
Jiminy
This wooden puzzle version of a world globe is the perfect tabletop addition to any study. It has an engraved stand with a secret compartment. The rotation of the gears symbolises rotation about Earths core.
What it contains231 parts on 4 ply sheets, 20 spare parts, rubber bands, axles (large and small), ruler (for checking dimensions) and thread.
You will need: a razor blade, scissors, sandpaper and a wax candle. No need for glue or paint (but you can paint it, if you want to!).
Size of assembled model: 26cm x 16cm x 18cm.
How to use it: Very carefully push out the pieces from the front side of the board, taking care not to break them. If the piece does not come out, gently cut any notches with the razor blade. To reduce friction, use the candle to wax the gear face and axle rotation areas. Assemble in a well-lit area, and follow the instructions carefully. You can also disassemble this model in reverse order.
