A collection of working paper models to cut out and make. Each of the models - a hopping sheep, a pecking hen, a bowing man and a flying fish - uses a different principle to generate motion.
A bravura display of imagination by Rob Ives has produced thisdelightful collection of working automata to cut out and make. As you operate the mechanisms, the Hopping Sheep hop energetically and the Pecking Hen pecks keenly into its feeder. The rather sad Motley Man bows and acknowledges the applause he has earned, while the Flying Fish undulates in a delightfully unexpected manner. Each of the mechanisms use a different principle to generate motion.
