Hydraulic Excavator Model toy (Valencia Avenue, Sunnyvale)
Hydraulic Excavator Model toy DIY hydraulic excavator model with syringes and tubing. Internet information: The image shows a DIY hydraulic robotic arm model built with 3D-printed black and orange structural parts, connected by flexible plastic tubing to multiple syringes used as manual hydraulic actuators. Key Features • Arm Structure: A multi-jointed mechanical linkage frame (similar to a scissoring or parallel linkage design) mounted on a base with a working grabber claw at the end. • Hydraulic Control System: Powered by water- or fluid-filled medical/craft syringes linked via transparent tubing, where pushing or pulling the plunger of one syringe moves a corresponding slave syringe on the arm. • STEM Application: Commonly used as an educational craft or science project to teach basic fluid mechanics, Pascal's principle, and mechanical levers. Near building 1075 Valencia Avenue in Sunnyvale, off South Mary Avenue and behind the Crosswalk Church. Please include your available pickup time in your response and I will send you directions.

Folktales of Bhutan (Heritage District, Sunnyvale)
191 Pages Book with 27 Folktales and 11 Legends of Bhutan. Bhutan is a Buddhist country lying between Northern India and Southern Tibetan China. Most of the Folktales have happy endings with good triumphing over some kind of evil being. Some of the Legends have less than happy endings. The stories range from 2 pages to 3 or 4+ pages in length. I read one a day to finish so I could give the book away.
