The Beam Engine is a design based on the principles of a first-class lever. A force is applied to one end of a beam via crank and flywheel, which is pivoted in the middle and the lever transfers the force to create work at the other end of the beam which is connected to a vertically-acting pump. A downward pull on the piston causes the other end of the beam to lift whatever is attached to it, thereby doing"work". The most common engine was the stationary steam-driven type, but water, wind or other forms of propulsion could be used. Each model kit comes with All wooden components shaped and drilled Sandpaper for finishing PVA glue Parts list Comprehensive instructions The models are manufactured from renewable wood sources and are design for age 9 and over. Younger builders may require the assistance of an adult. The models, both kits and built, are not suitable for children 3 years and under due to the risk of choking on the small parts.
