Lets Go Back In Time with Ugears
The Old Clock Tower mini-model by Ugears brings a charming medieval atmosphere into your home or office. This beautiful DIY wooden clock tower model is a mechanical mechanism in the form of a tower with clock face, moving gears, a moving pendulum, whimsical characters, and a weather vane on top. Scroll the large gear to set the hands of the clock, the pendulum, and the weather vane in motion. The weather vane is a trumpeter holding on to a banner blowing in the wind. For comic effect, a man is suspended from the clock's spinning minute hand, holding on for dear life. Another man climbs a ladder below the clock—perhaps a cleaner or clock repairman? Behind the clock a suspicious-looking figure enters a hidden door—a thief storing his loot in the clock tower, or maybe a hunchback, bringing his lunch back? Invent your own story as you spin the gears and watch the mechanism come to life.
No glue or special tools are required to assemble this model kit—just snap the pieces together (after lightly sanding and lubricating the moving gears with the included wax), following the detailed, illustrated instructions. Everything you need for assembly comes right in the box. A simple build, but the results are amazing and will have you wanting to build more, and more challenging Ugears wooden puzzles and models.
The Old Clock Tower is a fun, simple DIY project, a great gift idea for any age, and will make an attractive addition to your home or office decor. Bring a bit of Renaissance character to your desktop with this attractive wooden decorative clock and its cast of characters.
