Are you fascinated by the moving mechanics often hidden from the eye in engines and machines?
After retiring from a long career in scientific machinery design, author Raymond Levy found a renewed interest in the construction and mechanics of basic wooden apparatuses. Making Mechanical Marvels in Wood is Levy's fascinating collection of DIY wooden mechanical projects. It demonstrates how you can use wood to construct a number of intriguing mechanisms that whiz and whir, bob and flip.
Choose from a variety of projects that are inspired by classic devices of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, including:
