If you would like to look at the printed books,

LEGO Technic Tora no Maki is a book packed full of my LEGO Technic knowledge and experience.
It introduces a wide range of information, from basic assembly using LEGO Technic parts to applied techniques.
This book will be helpful for those who want to make all kinds of moving masterpieces, as well as those who want to make original robots with MINDSTORMS.
It can also be used as educational material for teaching the workings of machines and for experiencing the fun of mechanics.

Take a look at some of these samples.

The file has no protections or restrictions. You can view every page.
If you plan to continue using this book, however, I would appreciate it if you would pay for it.

A vast array of examples
With over 200 pages, LEGO Technic Tora no Maki shows you more than 300 examples of things you can make through over 1,700 pictures.
If you make just one a day, this book will keep you entertained for over a year.

For children and adults around the world.
Only the first three pages have any text. From the fourth page, there are only pictures and numbers.
That means the book can be used by children who cannot read yet and by people who can't read Japanese or English.

Made possible by PDF
This book is provided as a PDF file.
While you will need a computer to view the book, PDF files provide a great benefit in that photographs can be easily enlarged on the computer screen. That way, you can identify detailed parts with ease.
And, as no paper is used, PDF books provide a bit of a contribution to preserving the Earth's forests.

All we are asking for is $10.

The LEGO® Technic Idea Book: Wheeled Wonders is a collection of hundreds of mechanisms for cars, trucks, motorcycles, and other vehicles that you can build based on their pictures alone. Each project uses color-coded pieces and is photographed from multiple angles, making it easy to see how the models are assembled without the need for step-by-step instructions. Every model illustrates a different principle, concept, or mechanism that will inspire your own original creations. You're encouraged to use these elements as building blocks to create your own masterpieces.

The Technic models in Wheeled Wonders spin or move things, drag race, haul heavy gear, bump off walls, wind up and go, and much more. You'll discover how to build differential gears, implement steering and suspension, and design clutch and transmission systems to use in your own vehicles.

This visual guide, the second in the three-volume LEGO Technic Idea Book series, is the brainchild of master builder Yoshihito Isogawa of Tokyo, Japan. Each title is filled with photos of Isogawa's unique models, all of which are designed to fire the imaginations of LEGO builders young and old.

Imagine. Create. Invent. Now, what will you build?

NOTE: The LEGO Technic Idea Book series uses parts from various Technic sets. If you don't have some of the pieces shown in a particular model, experiment by substituting your own parts or visit the author's website for a list of the special parts used in the book.

Аннотация к книге "Большая книга идей LEGO Technic. Машины и механизмы"

Большая книга идей LEGO Technic. Машины и механизмып редлагает много способов постройки удивительных механизмов с помощью набора LEGO Technic. Для каждой модели дается список нужных деталей, минимальное объяснение и много цветных фотографий под разными углами, чтобы вы смогли собрать ее без пошагового объяснения.
Вы научитесь строить автоматические двери, стреляющие шариками устройства, руки-манипуляторы, устройства с вращающимися лопастями и другие удивительные механизмы. Каждая модель иллюстрирует простые механические принципы, которые вы сможете использовать при сборке собственных моделей.

Мы всегда рады честным, конструктивным рецензиям. Лабиринт приветствует дружелюбную дискуссию ценителей и не приветствует перепалки и оскорбления.

Не понимаю почему в переводе на русский эта книга называется просто книгой "идей", эта калька с английского не отражает содержания, ведь это целое обучающее пособие в картинках-инструкциях!
Для работы будут нужны детали от конструктора LEGO Technic, а также обязателен дефицитный набор LEGO 8293 Power Functions (мотор, двигатель, аккумулятор, выключатель, кабель). В конце книги представлены все детали, которые использованы, также набор необходимых деталей предваряет каждую.

Аннотация к книге "Большая книга идей LEGO Technic. Техника и изобретения"

Большая книга идей LEGO Technic. Техника и изобретения предлагает много способов постройки удивительных механизмов с помощью набора LEGO Technic. Для каждой модели дается список нужных деталей, минимальное объяснение и много цветных фотографий под разными углами, чтобы вы смогли собрать ее без пошагового объяснения.
Вы научитесь собирать шагающие машины с разным количеством ног, останавливающиеся у края стола автомобили, управляемые гусеничные машины и другие удивительные механизмы. Каждая модель иллюстрирует простые механические принципы, которые вы сможете использовать при сборке собственных моделей.

Книга большая, красивая, яркая. Ребенка сразу заинтересовала, приступил к сборке. Схемы понятные. Но деталек у нас маловато(( Прикрепляю фотографии страниц "Списка деталей", которые нужны, чтобы делать представленные в книге модели (чтобы была возможность заранее ими "закупиться")

Сыну 12 лет, увлекается лего-техник давно, сам без инструкций собирает разные агрегаты, движущиеся механизмы.
О книге сказал: "Здорово, интересно, любопытно. Но главное - идеи, а там есть очень любопытные! Вообще интересно ведь, что из моего любимого лего-техник могут напридумывать. Если еще что-то такое увидишь - покупай!"
Эти две книги мы купили обе, они не дублируются.
Именно в этой, мне показалось, все детали доступны, ничего редкого.
Механизмы разобраны от простого к сложному.
Многие механизмы уже знакомы по моделям, собранным по инструкциям из наборов Лего Техник.
Книга кроме того, что понятно объясняет обычные для мальчишек вещи, типа дифференциал, поворотный стол и коробка передач, еще очень вдохновляет на выдумку. У нас еще долго ходило по квартире нечто с треугольными гусеницами))
Вот, собственно, так, как есть.
Добавлю еще несколько фотографий книги.
Книга, действительно, огромная, добротная, грамотная (в смысле - в ней всё по уму). Скрыть
