📋 Product Description
📋 Product Description
Build. Experiment. Understand.
Build your own wooden hydraulic arm and discover how fluid pressure can create controlled mechanical movement.
Using syringes, tubing and mechanical connections, this hands-on STEM project demonstrates how force can be transferred through a hydraulic system to move the arm and operate its gripping mechanism.
Perfect for curious teens interested in engineering and mechanics, the kit combines construction, experimentation and screen-free learning in one practical project.
Recommended age: 14+
Power: Hydraulic mechanism — no electricity required
Approx. assembled size: 35 × 23 × 12 cm

Real Learning Through Hands-On Engineering
Build, experiment and discover how hydraulics and mechanical movement work through a hands-on STEM project.
From assembling the wooden structure to controlling the arm with syringes and tubing, each step turns engineering concepts into something learners can see, test and understand.
From Pressure to Motion
Hydraulics become much easier to understand when you can see them working.
As the syringes are operated, pressure travels through the tubing and activates different parts of the wooden arm. Learners can observe how individual mechanical components work together to create controlled movement — from positioning the arm to operating its gripping mechanism.
It’s a practical introduction to the relationship between pressure, force and motion.
Build the System Yourself
Start with the individual wooden parts and hydraulic components, then bring them together into a working mechanical system.
The building process encourages spatial reasoning, problem-solving and an understanding of how individual components connect to create movement.
