Junior Scientist Hydraulic Crane(Multicolor)

Explore hydraulics and engineering with Build Your Own Hydraulic Crane.If you've read How Hydraulic Machines Work, you know that the hydraulic crane is based on a simple concept -- the transmission of forces from point to point through a fluid. Most hydraulic machines use some sort of incompressible fluid, a fluid that is at its maximum density. Oil is the most commonly used incompressible fluid for hydraulic machines, including hydraulic cranes. In a simple hydraulic system, when a piston pushes down on the oil, the oil transmits all of the original force to another piston, which is driven up.To operate, you push in the syringe with water, so that the connected empty syringe moves up the piston... this in turn pushes the wooden stick up. Depending which syringe you push makes that part of the crane move. Product SpecificationThe framework is made of Medium Density Fibre (MDF). The parts get cut by a Laser machine. Assemble the parts using Interlocking system i.e. one has to engage its parts with each other by overlapping or by the fitting together of projections and recesses. Please be gentle, careful while assembling. This product is designed for a single use
