PLAYMAT - Getting into woodworking with Cool-Tool®
PLAYMAT is a realistic, fully operational, model making system. It was developed for the youngest "Do-It-Yourselfers". PLAYMAT is a real machine, but in spite of it, turning, sawing, drilling and sanding with PLAYMAT is mere "child's play".
Thousands of enthusiastic children have produced tiny artworks in their schools and during our workshops, thereby testing the suitability of this tool's diverse variations. Due to the childproof construction of all the machines, there is no danger of injury. Skillful youngsters can produce their first work pieces even during their pre-school years.
The PLAYMAT kit from Cool Tool® contains all the necessary parts for building up to four different, real working machines which are easily assembled:
Woodturning machine:
for soft wood with a diameter of up to 30mm
Point width 130 mm
Peak height 36 mm
Spindle revolution 3700 R/min
Engine performance 15 Watt
Rated speed 11000 R/min
Jigsaw:
For plywood with a thickness up to 6mm, balsa up to 20 mm
Saw plate surface 90 x 90 mm
Cut strength Plywood up to 6 mm
Stroke rate 3700 R/min
Drilling machine:
For the screw drilling of wood
Desk surface 90 x 90 mm
Distance desk surface - spindle nose 0 to 36 mm
Discharge 36 mm
Sanding machine:
For the sharpening of tools and finishing of work pieces
Disk revolution 3700 R/min
Sharpening surface Ø 32 mm
The PLAYMAT machine works in the same manner as the bigger machine tools (using a machine bed, slide, drilling table, etc...), so the little carpenters can be trained, in a safe and playful way, in how the big machines really work. For the system's drive, a special, childproof 12V adapter is included. Turning wood, sawing wood, and plenty of detailed construction plans are available as well.
