Wood Trick WDTK024 First Car Wooden Model Kit

WoodTrick is a brand of mechanical models made of natural wood by professional engineers. These are cars and trucks, devices, machinery, weaponry and other amazing mechanisms that you assemble with your own hands using the laser-cut parts and your clever mind.

Our kits are not so easy because the real satisfaction is to solve real engineering tasks. Sounds like a challenge? It definitely is :)

We have produced a miniature version of the automobile that launched the whole automotive industry. Do you recall the original car's appearance? It appeared more like a tricycle than a sophisticated automobile to modern eyes. In 1886, Carl Friedrich Benz created the first automobile. When the inventor unveiled his automobile to the public on January 29, it had an 18 km/hr top-speed engine.

What Else About the First Car Is Interesting?

Interesting fact: Carl Benz's wife's journey to her mother's place served as the vehicle's initial test drive. About 100 kilometers were driven in the automobile, which had to be pushed upward. According to legend, Bertha Benz encouraged her husband to upgrade the vehicle with a gearbox following this journey.

WoodTrick's The First Car

The First Car will go effortlessly, even if only a few meters rather than 100 kilometers. The model has a winding spring motor, which our experts installed. Put the model on a level surface, turn the wheels backward, then release to start the car. The design of the model was made as realistically as we could. You'll see three wheels, the driver's seat, the steering wheel, and other elements that may have been present on the world's first automobile.

Consider that the year is the 19th century.

A personalized wooden 3D model from WoodTrick is called The First Car. This model will appeal if you enjoy challenging crossword puzzles or admire classic vehicles.

Sanded plywood is used for the construction kit's whole component set. You don't even need glue to put the model together. At the same time that you will enjoy holding the model in your hands, it will be healthy for you and the environment.

When assembling the piece, you can refer to the delivery's included instructions with illustrations. Even if this is your first time assembling something, you will succeed since it thoroughly explains the complete assembly procedure. You should finish it in around two hours. And if you ask your pals for assistance, you won't realize how quickly time passes!
