Take a trip down memory lane with this nostalgic mechanical model, the Ugears Carousel!

This outstanding plywood model looks just like the familiar and beloved merry-go-round ride from the fair.

You may even smell the aroma of hot dogs and cotton candy as you watch the beautiful carousel horses rock up and down!

All of the parts are joined without glue or additional tools, whilst the motion energy is provided by a clever rubber band motor.

Wind up the key on the base to provide tension to the rubber bands, or if you’d prefer, you can even rotate your carousel by hand!

Piece your model together including the pendulum and crankshaft, then watch it spin using fascinating dynamics!

Your kit contains: 305 high quality pre-cut plywood pieces, cut with high-precision lasers.

Assmebled size: 21cm x 21cm x 26cm

Difficulty level: Medium (approximately assembly time 6 hours).

This was my first set. I have owned it for a few years before finally getting to put it together. I only broke 1 piece but luckily there was an extra. I was able to put most of it together without an external tool however the tiny decoration along the top I did need something to help push them together. I absolutely love it and can't wait to bring it to work.

This was my first set and it was amazing! When I broke some pieces and didn't have extras they sent me what I needed for free. This is an amazing company with amazing projects! I cannot wait to buy more.

Bought this for my little niece and we had so much fun building it. She wanted to paint each piece individually which made it even more fun. I would highly recommend this as a gift or a special treat for yourself. It is so mesmerising when completed!

Just finished, it’s my second model and thoroughly enjoyed it. So pleased to see the extra pieces when I snapped one....a lot of thought have gone into making these models and the finished product shows this. Thank you.

This was my first UGEAR to build and it was so much fun and turned out great! The string length in my instruction book was too long but with a few adjustments to scale to the associated pictures it works magnificently! I’m actually looking for a newer and more difficult one to do now. What a fun project! Any advice on a new UGEARS to tackle?

I have made a lot of UGEARS models. Not only is this one elegant to watch, the clockwork is mesmerizing. It was really fun to build, too!

Purchased two novelty miniature musical instrument desktop toys to take to work to amuse the office. Products are excellent and well packed for safe postage. CoolThings communicated the order and shipping details promptly, and items were sent and received quickly. Happy to recommend CoolThings and now that I know of them will likely purchase again....

My goods were exactly what I expected, I was told exactly where my parcel was and how long it would take to get to me. Everything was just so cool, as the name suggests. Love your stuff, it's so different....
