Triceratops by UGears

Three Horns are better than Two

Ugears adds a new beast to its dinosaur automaton collection with the Triceratops (“three horned face”), a dynamic, mechanical DIY wooden model of the dominant herbivore of the late Cretaceous period. Like our Tyrannosaurus Rex model, the Triceratops is driven by a metal spring which transmits power through a reduction gear, turning the axle that drives the four legs. An eccentric gear sets the tail swaying in synchronous motion with the legs, helping the dinosaur walk smoothly, just as in nature.

Model size: 34*14*11 cm approx
Number of components: 400
Estimated time for assembly: 8 hours

Assembling and discovering Ugears models is a smart and engaging hobby for grown-ups and kids of all ages. All Ugears models are made of sustainably sourced wood and require neither glue nor special tools to be fully assembled into functional working models.  Also, there is no need for batteries or any external power source as they are powered by rubber bands, gears, cranks and gravity.  

Each Ugears model is not just a construction kit but an incarnate IDEA of a PERFECT mechanism. Putting them together, you bring the idea to life.

This model is only one of many that we stock in our Ugears Model Kits range from Ugears Australia. This range is also part of our STEM Engineering & Construction collection, which has even more building kits for you to choose from.
