Product Description
Steampunk submarine | Build me! Discover the wonders of the underwater world with me!

Have you ever dreamed of exploring the depths of the sea, free as a fish, in your own personal submarine? Glide weightlessly past coral reefs and colourful underwater life and feel at one with your surroundings. The dome-shaped acrylic roof of the control room gives you a clear view of the wonders that surround you, without the restrictions of diving equipment. You are just settling into your leather captain's chair, sipping a cup of tea and listening to your customised Saint-Saëns "Aquarium" sound system, when a large shadow appears to your left. As you press the steering horn to turn the submarine around and your headlights search the darkness, an 8-foot-long reef shark suddenly glides past the control room and looks at you with the same curiosity as you look at it. Take a journey of the imagination with the steampunk submarine from Ugears!

Your 1:48 scale DIY wooden model steampunk submarine travels around 2.5 metres thanks to its rubber band motor, has a start/stop switch for better handling and can move straight ahead or turn left and right. The gear system moves the propellers to give your submarine the appearance of underwater propulsion. The steampunk style gives the impression that this watercraft is not a standard product, but rather the result of a brilliant, eccentric inventor's passion for deep-sea exploration.

To get your submersible model going, all you have to do is set the start/stop switch to "stop", make up to 15 half-turns with the button at the back of the boat, place the model on a flat surface and then release it after setting the switch to "start". If you turn the front wheels of your 3D wooden model steampunk submarine slightly to the left or right, it will make funny turns or even a whole circle. Rotating twin propellers and movable "fins" give your submarine the appearance of propulsion and directional control of your submarine. When assembling, pay particular attention to the pendulum, the start/stop system and the winding spanner. Remember to lightly sand and lubricate the gears and other moving parts to ensure their optimal operation.

The Ugears Steampunk Submarine is part of our new "SMART" range - a category of mechanical models that are somewhere between the mini and standard models in terms of complexity. Like all Ugears models, the SMART Steampunk Submarine is made from high-quality plywood, with parts laser-cut for easy assembly. With only 200 parts, even novice and intermediate modellers can assemble the model in just a few hours. No glue or special tools are required for assembly - all you have to do is put the parts together. Follow the illustrated instructions supplied with the kit (in English, German, Ukrainian, French, Polish, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Italian, Chinese and Korean). You can leave your submarine in its attractive natural wood state or paint or stain it in the colour combination of your choice - including yellow, of course! (Colours not included.)

The steampunk submarine will delight all ship modellers and add a unique new model to their collection of ships and watercraft. As an Easy difficulty model, this Ugears submarine makes a great gift for young modellers who dream of adventures and voyages on the oceans or in their depths. From here you can control some of the other seaworthy models in the Ugears collection, e.g. the Ocean Beauty yacht, the Merihobus trimaran, the research vessel or the tugboat. There are no limits to imaginative voyages with Ugears!
