Today, Cody picked up the Motor Works kit and wanted to do it. It's a kit where you build a working model of a 4 cylinder engine. I have to admit I was intimidated...especially after I opened the box! And yes Karen...there really were a bazillion pieces :) There were so many parts, but I just took a breath and we started at the beginning.
Cody had his toolbox with him...just in case.
Assembling the pistons
Who knew you could use a lower crankcase as a mask?
And four and a half hours later, we had a working engine on our kitchen table! Cody was SO proud of himself! I'm pretty proud, too...of both of us:)
The kit was fantastic! We learned so much and loved doing this project together.
