Mini ATM Machine - DIY KIt

Short Product Description
A super-fun mechanical engineering kit where kids build a working miniature ATM with gears, cranks, and a sliding dispenser! Learn how real ATMs use mechanisms to move and release money—with zero electronics.

What’s Inside the Box

• Pre-cut basil wood sheets (ATM body panels)

• Precision laser-cut gears (multiple sizes)

• PETG transparent windows

• Crank handle components

• Wooden rods & pegs

• Fake currency cards (play notes)

• Rubber bands for tensioning

• Illustrated step-by-step instruction manual

How It Works

Kids assemble the ATM body and gear train using the pre-cut parts.
Turning the crank activates:

• A linked gear system

• A pusher mechanism inside

• A smooth sliding dispenser

Insert play money inside and watch the ATM dispense notes when the crank rotates—just like the real one!

What Kids Learn

• Gear ratios & mechanical advantage

• Crank-to-motion conversion

• How real dispensing mechanisms work

• Fine motor skills, engineering thinking & assembly skills

• Practical understanding of finance play concepts

Perfect For

Ages 9–12 — ideal for makers, tinkerers, and children who love mechanical gadgets and pretend play.
