About this model

I played something similar almost 30 years ago, so i tried to remake it. The game is for 1-3 players. The rules are simple: Go from one place on the board to another using the gear mechanism. Use plugs to block placing gears ; use a wrench as a token to remove one of the gears (for multiplayer). EDIT 29oct26: I added new version of crank. The wings now sit entirely on the solid face of the gear and nothing hangs over the teeth.
