How It Works
Kids assemble the vehicle chassis, gear-driven lifting arm, and working scoop using slot-fit wooden parts.
The mechanism operates using:
-
Linkages that raise and lower the bucket
-
Peg-and-gear joints for smooth articulation
-
Rubber-band assisted motion for controlled lifting
Once built, kids can scoop, lift, and load lightweight materials—just like a real construction machine!
