UGEARS Mechanical Box

  UGEARS出了一系列木材機械模型,主打就是自走、機械、免膠水的模型,有些是純粹的玩具,有些還有實用的功能。雖然號稱免膠水,但還是要其他工具喔! 這不像是鋼普拉這麼簡單,建議要至少要準備凡士林或其他潤滑劑,一把大一點的尖嘴鉗,以及大力金剛指才行,因為這個模型公差設計的滿剛好的,有些卡榫要用金剛指或是工具敲進去。
  UGEARS has a series of wooden models. Self-propelled, mechanical and no glue needed are the main features of the series. Some are just toys but some model has useful function. It's not that easy as a Gunpla or other plastic models. You still need some tools like lubricant and a needle-nose pliers. Because the tolerance of the components maybe tight that need the tool for help.



很妙的是上面還有寫比例尺
It is also a scale model, not full size.

外包裝打開後裡面有三片框架,大概就盒子一半高度,底下是中空的喔
This model only has three frame.



框架正面
The front side of the frame.

框架背面,可以看到數字是反過來的
The rear side of the frame, you can see the numbers are reversed.



牙籤是齒輪的轉軸,大概只會用到一半,不用擔心用斷了沒有合適的備品
The toothpick is the shaft of the gear. These include the spare parts.


說明書是多語言的,但沒有中文在裡面...
The tutorial is multi-language, but there's no Chinese inside.

不過基本上圖解就足夠理解了,特別注意的是右下角的這個工具,可以從框架上找到,它包含了量測及推進牙籤的功能
The tool in the bottom right of this page, you can find it in one of the frame. It use for measurement and pushing the toothpick.


每頁開始都會告訴你要使用哪片框架和那些零件
It tells you which frame and components are going to be assembled on every pages.


還有注意要塗上潤滑劑的位置
And be aware of the gear position that need put some lubricant on.


他不像塑膠模型框架有流道,所以只能用推的,有時候零件剛好會裂開
It's not like plastic model has runner, so the only way is to push the component from the frame. Sometimes it may crack.

這是類似注料口的地方,建議齒輪處還是用筆刀修整
It's something like a gate, and better repair it.

牙籤裝進齒輪前建議都先推進這兩個圓形的小零件,讓牙籤前端稍微變形會比較好推進齒輪組裡面
Before pushing the toothpick into the gears, better use these two small and round components for shaping. It will easier for pushing it.

我是直接用尖嘴鉗壓
I use needle-nose pliers for shaping.







壓下左邊按鈕,就可以打開蓋子,放開後會自動復位
Press the left buttom, and the cover will be opened. Release it and the cover will turn back automaticlly.


下面連結的影片就是它動起來的樣子囉~
It's how it looks like.
