The impact of mechanical engineering is all around us. This broad, dynamic field encompasses the design, development, and testing of basically anything that moves—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. The blend of interactive models, easily digestible facts, and real-world examples delivers a comprehensive science kit that is both entertaining and educational.
