## Description

When you see these guys in their natural environment they can appear a little clumsy, dropping out of the sky and crashing into the water, they would seem to live with a permanent headache!! This is not the case with our Pelican animated model; it is the very epitome of elegance. Crank the handle and he moves backwards and forwards with grace as the large beak opens and closes revealing a fish supper that looks remarkably cheerful considering the predicament it finds itself in. The Pelican mechanism is centered on a single eccentric cam set inside a cam box that is connected to the tail of the bird by an angled push-rod. The key to the model operation is a pivot on the underside of the body, in turn connected via horizontal bar to the base of the neck. A very clever curved neck link joins the body to the upper beak and when the body moves up and down a push/pull motion operates the beak. The fish is set on a pivoted arm that in turn is fixed into the upper beak. 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 designed 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.
