Technic Ideenbuch

This book by Yoshihito Isogawa contains 106 motorless mechanisms that you can replicate, modify, and operate. Photos from various angles and illustrated Technic parts for each project will assist you in building. The models range from practical tools for lifting, gripping, shooting, and measuring to functioning devices that demonstrate the principles of mechanical engineering. The technical models and clever constructions operate without motors, electronic elements, or sensors. Instead, cranks, winches, doors, and rotors are used to power devices such as wind turbines, spinning tops, gripping tools, and a spirograph. The ingenious kinetic ideas will inspire you to create your own mechanical masterpieces.
