There's something intriguing about a machine with well-crafted wooden parts...cogs and cams that fit together "just so" to perform a task. There's also precise challenge in building such a wooden wonder - and a special satisfaction in watching the excitement of those who turn the handle to see what happens.Making Wooden Mechanical Models contains plans for fifteen good-looking and incredibly clever machines with visible wheels, cranks, pistons and other moving parts made of wood. Projects include the:Oil pumping rigFlywheel propeller machineRack & pinion machineHarmonic oscillation punch machineReciprocating engineCam & fork machineCombustion enginePendulum escapement machineThe plans call for a challenging variety of techniques and procedures - laminating, cutting cyma curves, tenon wedging, precision drilling, pegging, whittling and more.By completing these projects, woodworkers will gain the know-how to build wooden models of their own designmachines that beg to be set into action, turning the simplest movements into marvelous feats.
