Exposed gears, cutout details around the barrel and a wrapped grip give the HowCat Lever Pistol its steampunk character. This DIY wooden model keeps its lever linkage in view, making the mechanics part of the experience after assembly.
Laser-engraved basswood pieces form the structure, while layers of specialty paper add pattern, texture and a metallic sheen. The working lever, linked gears and movable trigger bring the construction into motion.
With 299 pieces and an estimated two-hour build, the kit offers a focused project for model makers and mechanical collectors. The finished model measures 338 × 63 × 165 mm (L × W × H), ready to display as a piece of your own handiwork.
Features
The Lever Linkage Work
Move the lever and watch the linked gears respond. The exposed mechanism keeps that connection visible, giving you something to explore after the last piece is in place.
Layers of Wood and Specialty Paper
Basswood pieces form the frame, while patterned specialty paper adds texture and a metallic sheen. The layered construction gives the model depth while keeping its wooden framework visible.
A Grip with Its Own Character
The wrapped grip adds texture to the steampunk design. Red woven binding defines the black finish, while the gold version uses khaki fabric for a weathered look.
Please note
