Review
Gears and base plates, each in three sizes, are accompanied by perpendicular and angle connectors that change the direction of motion from vertical to horizontal and permit three-dimensional constructions. Activity guide includes simple instructions and clear diagrams, but pieces connect almost intuitively so children can easily experiment with many variations. (Ruth B. Roufberg, Parent's Choice®, 1998) -- From Parents' Choice®
