With this set, you can build an upright construction, add the axis pieces, and decorate your craft with the gears. Then you can turn a crank on any of these gears, and watch all the connected gears rotate. This set also has a thick plastic chain, so you can connect the gears in more ways than one.
The pieces of this set are big and sturdy, so they can survive many years of use. This set is not very complicated in its concept, so you can give it to the children you are 3 years old or older. You can also mix this set with any other Gear!Gears!Gears! set, enhancing it with extra pieces.

K’NEX Scorpion On The Lawn
This is another model we made from K’Nex Mobile set.
K’NEX Mobile Outdoors
The are detailed manual for building 3 models, and some more on K’Nex site. But you can actually build anything fro this set. The cars are very fast, so they are not for the indoor play. You can really use them only outside – the RC picks up the signal from a really big distance. On a smooth asphalt, the batteries hold on for a very long time, on a bumpy lawn they allow around 20 minutes of fast driving.
K’NEX Mobile Indoors
I want to show you our new K’Nex set. Knex-mobiles – a set for building radio-controlled models. My kids really liked it – every day you can go walk with a new radio-controlled car or some kind of monster. The set consists of a powerful motor with two large wheels (can’t turn, runs on 8 AA batteries), a block of front wheels (can turn), a remote control (powered by one battery) and a small bag with standard Knex parts.
