Automata are mechanical toys that move with cams, levers and linkages. This incredible Flying Pig is engineered using a minimal number of parts yet produces dramatic movement. Turn the crank and the pig "flies"! Made of untreated, natural pine and can be painted or decorated. The Pig's wingspan is 9" and it stands 10" tall when assembled. Comes with complete instructions. Requires only white glue (included), scissors and a ruler for assembly. Recommended for ages 9 and up.
