Tim240z Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 Saw this in a mailing today and thought it was just really cool!!! Smithsonian Motor Works Build your own engine... with Smithsonian. A dream-come-true gift for the mechanically minded! Our 100+ piece set contains everything needed to build a working, battery-powered 4-cylinder engine. The detailed, child-friendly instruction book will guide your little gearhead through every step--from installing the pistons, to mounting the cylinder block, to assembling the camshaft. (And once he or she is done, you can marvel at the turning fan and flashing lights!) Parts screw together easily; screwdriver included. Requires 2 "AA" batteries (sold separately). Ages eight and up. http://www.leapsandboundscatalog.com/jump.jsp?lGen=detail&itemID=15758&itemType=PRODUCT&iMainCat=118&iSubCat=28188&iProductID=15758&change=118 Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy Z Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 That would be great for the kid that already knows his way around legos and erector sets. What a great way to teach someone what's going on in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
