New UGears Models Pre-Order 1
Hurdy-Gurdy Pre-Order Â
Other New Models available for pre-orderÂ
Treasure Box
The true jewel of UGears new collection of wooden models is an exquisite Mechanical Treasure Box for jewelry and notes. The delicate through-carved work of its lid and sides invites you to gain a glimpse into the mystery that the moving gears conceal.
Although only the one who can solve the secrets of the puzzle-box will get to enjoy the treasure of beautiful mechanics in its action. One would imagine that in order to open the box, we’d need a key – and the key is right there, beautifully embedded in the carved lid. All you need to do to take it out is to slightly turn the key clockwise. Although, getting the key is only a part of the puzzle. To set the gears in motion, before taking the key out, you want to unblock the mechanism that lifts the lid by turning the key counter-clockwise.
When all the secrets are revealed and the box is opened, inside you will find a small compartment for jewelry, notes and other small items. You can be sure, your treasures and secrets are safe with the new UGears Treasure Box.
Mechanical Town - Robot Factory
Have you ever wanted to build yourself a robot? How about a couple of robots? Ugears and its new model, the Robot Factory of the Mechanical Town collection, gives you a great opportunity to do it.
The Robot Factory, officially known in the Town as the Mechanical Wonder Works, is very much what both of its names imply: it is a model of a factory that produces robots and undoubtedly, a wonder of wooden mechanics. The model features a steam-punk style workshop with a fully functional assembly line to help you build your robots: arrange the parts of the robot in proper places along the line, wind it up, push the button, and – voila! – your automatic assembly line produces a mechanical wooden robot, all new and ready to serve whatever ingenious game plan you have in mind.
The settings of the Robot Factory Model represent a production facility with its main mechanical block running on Geneva drive. The assembly line is designed to automatically implement a semi knock-down assembly of robots. After initial preparation, the wind-up mechanism of the line will complete the assembly. The Factory design allows you to observe moving axles and gears working on the final product. In the end, all you need to do is to throw in a couple of gears to fix the robot’s arms and legs in place, and your new mechanical assistant is ready to go explore Mars or – help you to put another one like itself together!
The Robots have articulated legs and arms joints, capable of body rotation and come with a control cabin.
The rest of the Factory includes a monorail running along the perimeter with a forklift to deliver spare parts and tools, a ramp for the vehicles, miniature figures of workers, and small freight crates. To make the spirit of a solid industrial facility complete, the Factory is equipped with a fascinating decorative Stirling steam engine.
Made of plywood to be assembled without glue or special tools, The Robot Factory Model opens a whole new level of interactivity: UGears traditionally provides an ever-exciting process of assembly expanding the gaming constituent now with the machines building machines!

Assembles easily: all component parts are already cut off and can be easily removed from the board. The model assembles like a puzzle without glue and special tools by following an illustrated color manual. While children are collecting some blocks, the adults can suggest their help: the joining parts are cut off precisely for the slots and for the assembly, you only need to insert the component pins, pressing them with your fingers. But if the fingers are too small, they may need some help. :)

UGears Kickstarter Campaign 6
UGears Kickstarter CampaignÂ
Ugears keeps expanding the creative world of hobbies and opening an assembly process as an exciting game. Inspired by the art of medieval craftsmen and enriched by smart engineering of the XXI century, this June, exclusively on Kickstarter, UGears have launched new models  with extraordinary functionality: a Hurdy-Gurdy, the genuine gem of the Ugears collection, a Date Navigator and a Secret Model which will be presented later in the Campaign.
In addition Ugears are presenting a whole range of new models from the Ugears Mechanical Town Series: a Tram Line, a Rail Manipulator and a genuine Robot Factory
Also, UGears decided to combine the individual miniature models from our Ugears Tribiks range into a series of collectibles for grown-ups, U-Fidgets-Tribiks. The new series includes all your favorite types of Tribiks that help you organize your thoughts and ideas, drive new insights, relieve stress, regain control over your emotions, and become your everyday life companions as key-charms or original trinkets.
And finally, UGears keeps the promise to create curious models developed specially for kids that offer backers exclusive access to Ugears coloring 3D models. Easy to build, fun to color and play with, the children series provides great opportunity to spend some quality time with children.
All these models are available through Kickstarter Campaign (except Tram Line, which is available for sale at ugears.us) and will go on direct sales later in the year (by early fall), right in time for the gift-giving holidays.
