These adorable yet slightly creepy cards many be the perfect greeting for a friend or spouse
Primarily made of paperboard, wood and plastic, inventor Bradley N Litwin has made the perfect mechanical surprise for your loved ones, called mechanicards. These adorable yet slightly creepy cards many be the perfect greeting for a friend or spouse. Many such mechanicards are available. The one above is a seven-cylinder 'radial engine' and a lever at the right hand end of the card when twisted, all seven cylinders rotate mechanically. Ideal gift for a gearhead.
Besides the "Radial Engine" card displayed above, there are infact plenty of other very interesting mechanicards for you to choose from. The "The Ambigulator" is the second piece in the introductory series, and features a hand-cranked optical effect, and a mechanism that asks more questions than it answers. Also part of the series is "The Strum-U-Lator" card, which was put together to with the intention of replacing the popular singer-songwriter genre of guitar playing, required almost as much skill.
The fourth in the introductory series is the "Dragonfly Surprise" which offers a moment of sublime serenity, with an animated dragonfly, that emerges from a wooded stream And finally we have "The Yike-a-cycle" that as displayed in the image above features a lone, cycling apparition, that traverses an undulating, circular path to promised enlightenment
