Pro'sKit GE-731 Manny the Garden Eel Soft Tube Arm Kit

The Pro'sKit GE-731 Manny the Garden Eel is a battery-free soft tube robotic arm kit designed to demonstrate mechanical engineering principles. Using dual joysticks, learners can operate the mechanism in two distinct modes to grab and throw balls. It is an ideal hands-on project for students, young makers, and STEM classrooms.

Biomimetic dual-mode gameplay

Manny the garden eel features two operating modes: Fish Head Mode and Claw Mode. These interchangeable setups allow the arm to grab, hold, and throw balls for interactive fun.

Battery-free joystick operation

Movement is controlled entirely via left and right manual joysticks. The mechanism operates without batteries, relying on mechanical gears and a nylon rope tension drive system.

Engaging STEM construction

With an estimated assembly time of 7.5 hours, this kit provides a rewarding building experience for hobbyists and students aged 10 years and up.
