Wooden Caterpillar Model Kit

The wooden mechanical Caterpillar model is a very good teaching aid as it shows some basic principles of both physics and engineering.

The Caterpillar is simply delightful; the wiggly motion of the body driven by the series of offset cams will fascinate young and old alike. It wiggles along, all the while watching the pretty butterfly overhead and dreaming of its’ own metamorphosis.
