Prototype history
At all times, designers asked themselves: “What if?” when inventing new kinds of mechanisms. And they thought about what would happen if the features of one mechanism were combined with another, one piece of architecture was replaced by another, from a completely different machine. Sometimes these inventions were dictated by necessity, like the airship or steam yacht, for example, and sometimes they were made just for fun.
Every engineer secretly wants to create a fantastic device that would be the embodiment of all progressive ideas at the same time. Unfortunately, in the world of real mechanics, this is not always possible. But the creators of science fiction films, video games, and scale models, may well afford to dream up. And now, look and see: an unusual and unique model for self-assembly “Graceful CAT”.
The designers of “Metal Time”, planning the creation of a fantastic model, decided to combine several completely different mechanisms. The platform of the “Graceful CAT” model is a bulldozer with characteristic caterpillars. And on it placed the cockpit and tail of the helicopter and the cylindrical “locomotive” engine compartment. In general, it turned out to be a fun toy that will decorate any children’s room.
Features, benefits
The DIY model “Graceful CAT” consists of a platform typical of a bulldozer and parts of other mechanisms. The platform is made up of a pair of triangular tracked wheel systems. Flexible metal tracks have a grip on the wheels and transmit the movement of the entire model. Another similarity to a bulldozer is the front bucket.
The engine compartment is made in the form of a cylindrical hood, giving the model a resemblance to a children's steam locomotive. Its surface is decorated with ornaments that emphasize the decorative purpose of the model.
An unexpected detail in "Graceful CAT" is a spherical cockpit with seats and a dashboard inside. The cockpit is decorated with a colored detail that goes into the tail section of the helicopter.
“Graceful CAT” is made using colored stainless steel and this makes it playful and funny.
The model is equipped with a spring winding mechanism and moves on tracks on any horizontal surface and can overcome small obstacles.
"Graceful CAT" is an unusual, bright design, which is designed to improve the mood of its owner even from one look at it.
Like all “Metal Time” self-assembly sets, the “Graceful CAT” model is made of eco-friendly stainless steel, used in the food industry, and approved for the production of consumer goods and toys.
Precise cutting of the set eliminates the possibility of cuts during the assembly process. The parts are precisely adjusted to each other and will not create problems when joint.
The pleasant tactile sensations, strength, and aesthetics of brushed metal favorably distinguish steel parts from wooden or plastic used in other DIY sets.
Convenient flat packaging made of eco-friendly recyclable cardboard combines the compactness and aesthetics of an expensive gift.
Each customer of a “Metal Time” model receives a club badge, a thank you card, and a unique number assigned to each model. Joining the “Metal Time” club opens additional opportunities for each buyer. The exciting process of assembling the model will lead to an amazing result: you will get a beautiful, shiny, filigree model on your desk or in a conspicuous place in the interior, as a matter of pride, or an element of a collection.
The “Graceful CAT” model is a wonderful toy, a funny souvenir, and a bright accent in your collection of DIY models. It cannot be attributed to any category of mechanisms, so it will take its special place in any collection.
In addition, the model will perfectly fit into the interior as an original element of decor. In the children's room, she can become the central figure in the composition of fantastic vehicles for superheroes. In the office - emphasize the boss's penchant for jokes and eccentric acts. It will create an atmosphere of boundless imagination of stuff in the interior of creative agencies.
But these are not all the applications of “Graceful CAT”. You and your friends can have a race of unusual toys on the weekends. Or build a model alien base where "Graceful CAT" will be the main vehicle. Or use the model in a completely real amusement park presentation.
But the main purpose of this model is to entertain you, your friends, and your family in the process of assembling. This job is not for the weak. You will have to spend several hours and apply all your skills to manual work. The result of this adventurous collaborative process is a bright, fun model to show off to your less-skilled friends.
