Mechanical celesta 573pcs - 3d wooden mechanical puzzle

Célesta mechanical Ugears - musical instrument and programmable automata

The Mechanical celesta is an engineering feat that merges the art of modelism with the world of music. Inspired by the mechanical piano, the music box and the xylophone, this functional instrument allows you to play and program melodies on a complete octave (Do major). Second instrument from the Ugears collection after the Wheeled Viella, it offers a unique sensory experience, mixing construction pleasure and musical awakening.

Dual operating mode: manual or automatic

Célesta offers two distinct ways of producing music, making the instrument accessible to all, regardless of musical knowledge:

• Manual mode (keyboard): Use the keys to activate the hammers that hit the metal plates, allowing you to freely interpret your own melodies.
• Programming mode (rotary drum): Compose a partition with pimple panels along a drum. By simply turning the crank, the mechanism triggers the notes automatically according to your programming.

Acoustic design and precision materials

This kit is a demonstration of mechanical precision using various materials to ensure a clear sound:

• Acoustic components: Metal plates, wooden balls and cotton ropes for optimal resonance.
• Sophisticated mechanics: The rotary drum allows a mechanical memorization of melodies, a playful introduction to the historical principles of programming.
• Ugears quality: High quality laser-cut wood for precise assembly without glue or special tools.
