This is a UGears 70226 Steampunk Airship Wooden Model Kit
Age: Our puzzles have a 14+ rating on the boxes. For this model, we recommend from 12 years old accompanied by an adult
Build a cabin in the sky, hang it from a balloon and fly through the clouds for great adventures with the Steampunk Airship, a fantastic mini zeppelin made of wood. This DIY mini airship has that retro steampunk sensibility that Ugears is known for, with a tugboat-style cabin and rear porch, a wind-up bungee engine with on/off switch, engine-driven propellers, a spinning ship wheel, moving outriggers, and wheels. which allow the model to rotate back and forth up to 2 m on a flat surface, giving the thrill of mechanical movement. Our whimsical airship consists of only 170 pieces and is rated "Easy" so even beginners can build this whimsical flyer.
The German inventor, Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin, worked on his concept and design of an inflatable airship for over twenty years before patenting his invention in 1895. Maybe one of his early sketches resembled the Steampunk airship? Commercial zeppelins have large cylindrical bodies made of fabric stretched over a rigid metal frame containing the large gas sacs that provide buoyancy. Our airship is smaller-scale, more personal and more welcoming: you can imagine flying your craft with a cup of tea on the table where you have spread out your navigation maps.
The Steampunk Airship is a fun and easy DIY project for anyone interested in aviation or model making. You won't need glue or special tools to build this retro wooden airship model. With Ugears puzzles and 3D models, all you have to do is cut the pre-cut laser-cut pieces from their artist-grade composite wood boards and assemble them. Everything you need comes in the box, including instructions in 11 languages (Ukrainian, English, German, French, Polish, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean). The model kits also include a piece of sandpaper and wax so you can smooth and lubricate the moving parts to keep your Steampunk airship running smoothly.
The creative process doesn't have to end once the model is assembled. Keep these juices flowing by painting, coloring, or dyeing your Steampunk airship in a color palette of your choice (paints not included). The Ugears models also look great in their natural wood condition. Then engage in imaginative play as you dream of the fields, lakes, mountains, or oceans you'll cross in your personal airship.
To assemble yourself, without the use of glue.
Model size: 16.9 x 13.6 x 9 cm
Number of pieces: 170
Assembly: about 3 hours
