The Ugears mechanical wooden model kit « Research Vessel » offers a challenging building experience for model-making enthusiasts. Crafted from 575 laser-cut wooden pieces, this detailed research ship measures 38.5 x 11 x 25 cm. Neither glue nor additional tools are required for assembly. The finished model impresses with its mechanical functions: forward movement and turns can be controlled via two levers. The open hull reveals the interplay of gears that drive the movement. A swiveling crane, a deployable bathyscaphe, and a small motorboat complete the maritime equipment of this highly detailed wooden model.
