Ready to challenge yourself with a whole new element of model building?
With the clever construction of the UGears Hurdy-Gurdy musical instrument model kit, you can take music making into your own hands. Puzzle through 292 interlocking pieces to create your masterpiece. This instrument can be a challenge for even experienced constructors, allowing for hours of creative engineering followed by an inventive musical experience.

The UGears Hurdy Gurdy is an instrument quite unlike any other.
It comes as a kit with everything needed for assembly. Since the parts fully interlock, no glue is required, so simply follow the instruction manual to remove the pre-cut pieces from their plywood sheets and gently click them together. Thanks to elegant woodworking and stylized workmanship, the resulting instrument is not only functional but also beautiful to look at. As it is played, display windows allow an excellent view of the gears as they work the bow and keys. Mechanical enthusiasts and puzzling experts can enjoy the challenge of assembling the pieces into a lovely and functional model. The aesthetically minded can't help but admire the elegant craftsmanship and the plucky notes. Music is played on two strings that are simple to tune. Buttons and switches control which strings are being played, and keys control the tones, resulting in a violin-like sound.

This mechanical model is recommended for creative minds over the age of 14, but can be a delightful project for the whole family. With the help of the instruction manual and a convenient assembly video available online, the hurdy gurdy should take about 4-5 hours to complete. UGears is happy to offer free replacement parts in the rare case that a piece breaks during assembly. After completion, the hurdy gurdy is perfect as a lap instrument or display piece.

Assembly required, no glue needed.

Expected to actually get to use it...

During assembly, parts kept splintering. Once I had finished assembling it and was stringing/tuning it, the internal gears kept catching, causing the crank to break off.
Doesn't seem to be able to be repaired.
Wouldn't recommend buying

Very cool!

I had a great time building this, but I recommend getting some graphite lubricant to really make it move well. It's a beautiful kit with excellent instructions. The laser cutting is the best I've ever seen, and the extra included kit for a small hammer was lovely and appreciated. My wife loved it too. It obviously doesn't sound quite as good as a really gurdy but it feels like one to play.

Totally recommended!
