316-piece wooden orrery kit

This ROKR ST001 kit contains 316 pre-cut wooden pieces that assemble into a mechanical solar system model. A hand crank drives eight planets around a glowing central sun. The finished piece stands 13.7 inches tall and serves as both a desktop display and a working demonstration of orbital motion.

Hobbyists who enjoy multi-hour builds

The model is rated for ages 14 and above and suits adults who want a hands-on project that teaches planetary order and relative motion. It is not for anyone who wants a motorised or app-controlled orrery, nor for buyers who need a scientifically accurate scale model with correct orbital periods or axial tilts.

Flat workspace and several hours of uninterrupted

Assembly requires no glue or extra tools, but the 316 pieces demand patience and a clear surface. The crank mechanism must be aligned carefully so the planets rotate freely. Check that you have adequate shelf or desk height for the 13.7-inch finished model before starting the build.

Questions about this item

Does the ROKR ST001 Orrery kit include any glue or tools I need to supply myself?

No additional tools or glue are required; the 316 wooden pieces interlock and the crank mechanism assembles without adhesives.

Can the 13.7 in tall finished model sit on a standard bookshelf alongside smaller collectibles?

At 13.7 in height the orrery fits most desk or shelf spaces and its white wooden finish complements other display items.

How do I verify the planetary gearing is meshing correctly after I finish building it?

Turn the crank handle — all eight planets should orbit the glowing sun smoothly without binding or skipped teeth.
