Description
Bring out your inner engineer with this new Geomag Mechanics kit! After building the kit, start off down the track by spinning the propeller to start the momentum of the first ball, which heads down to the magnetic cannon and shoots a magnet on the other side up to the corkscrew elevator. The elevator is powered by the propeller and carries the ball to the top for a run back down to the start! The 207 rails, connectors, and pieces are simple to attach, and the booklet has detailed instructions, making the set easy to build. This engineering toy teaches about momentum and builds spatial reasoning skills and interest in STEM the field of physics. The product is crafted from 86% recycled plastic and is durable, perfect for hours of exploring. This set can also be combined with another Geomag set to double the fun!
Publisher's Description of Geomag Mechanics Gravity Elevator Circuit (207 pieces)
Playing with Geomag means knowing and mastering the invisible forces of nature. With the help of Geomag magnets, you will learn to use gravity to turn your own magical motor, running the spheres up and down the track, all built by you.
Category Description for Geomag Magnetic Building Sets
We've all built stuff with blocks, LEGOS®, and other connecting bits and pieces. So why not build with magnets? Geomags are the perfect, high-quality magnetic building sets to engage creative minds. Each set includes strong 6cm long magnetic rods encased in plastic as well as small (1.3cm dia.) non-magnetic steel balls. The rods can be boldly-colored or grey, depending on the set (see individual descriptions below), and some also include plastic panels (which clip in between the rods), wheels, and other accessories. Suggested structures and shapes to build are included in every kit. These quality sets are made in Switzerland. With these simple magnets, the possibilities (and science discoveries!) are endless and amazing.
