STEM Self-Build Mechanical Safe Project – Class Set of 20
Challenge your students with an exciting project that combines problem-solving, design, and real-world application! The STEM Mechanical Safe Project lets students build their own functional, lockable safe using mechanical components and number dials.
Perfect for Years 4–6, this class set of 20 fully-resourced kits gives each student the chance to construct a safe that actually works — complete with a rotating combination lock mechanism. It’s a fun and rewarding way to explore mechanical systems, gears, and design engineering.
As students assemble the safe and test different lock combinations, they’ll also gain a deeper appreciation for security systems and mechanical logic.
