GIRDER AND PANEL BUILDING SETS
Educational Building, Construction Toys and Science Fair Kits
By Bridge Street Toys
Girder & Panel is a toy construction building set, appropriate for ages 6-12, with which you can build buildings (as well as bridges with the Bridge & Turnpike building set, and powerplant with the Hydrodynamic building set). The completed structure is made to resemble real-life sky-scrapers, fire stations, bank buildings, bridges, pumps, and so on. Originally introduced by Kenner Products in the 1950Ős, there is an entire generation of engineers and architects that have many fond memories of playing with this set as children.
Girder and Panel building sets provide scale parts to construct buildings the same way as real buildings. First the foundation is laid. Then the building's skeleton is built with a framework of girders. Then the wall and window panels are attached to the framework. To finish the buildings, the roof is placed on top and flag poles and signs are added.
Girder and Panel buildings look like real buildings when they are finished. The parts are scaled to the common HO scale (1/87). You may be familiar with this scale as it is commonly used for model trains! Many accessories such as cars, trucks, trees, and trains can be added to your model city.
Kenner Products Company: These Girder and Panel building sets and spare parts are compatible with the original sets manufactured by Kenner Products Company, based in Cincinnati, Ohio, from 1957 until the early 1970s.

HYDRODYNAMIC Deluxe Set
HYDRODYNAMIC Building Sets - Science Fair - Project
by Bridge Street Toys
Build a model of a manufacturing plant with working tanks, pipes, valves, pipes, and pump with this unique construction toy. A colorful instruction book provides building instructions and several examples of different structures you can build. Model an ice cream factory, a water treatment plant, an oil refinery, .... design your facility, build it, then add water for hours of fun!
Discover how a siphon works. Balance the water flow through the plant by adjusting the valves. We also highly recommend this set as a tool for conducting middle school and high school level science fair projects - use the set to investigate the best filtration material for cleaning dirty water.
This set comes with a large tray and footing in which your build the structure. The tray measures approximately 10 inches by 16 inches by 3 inches deep. The tray and the footing are both white. The footing has a grid of 12 holes for columns (4 x 3 configuration). Build the structure using the footing in the tray for the base, place the submersible pump in the tray, add water until you completely cover the inlet on the pump, and then enjoy reconfiguring the pipes, opening and closing valves and watching the action! When you take the set down, all the parts pack into the tray, the plastic lid snaps on and it can be safely stored away for future use.
The tanks are made of crystal clear translucent plastic material. The pictures on this page do not reflect the clarity of the tanks - with the actual tanks in the set, you can see every air bubble in the water!
Parts that are included with this set:
Aerator Spray: Attached to the piping and positioned on the bottom of the square tank, cover the tank and watch the fountain! The spray head can also be attached to a pipe and positined over-top of an open tank, then you can watch the water spray into the tank.
Turbine Velocity Meter: Works on a water wheel principle, displays the speed of the water flowing through the system.
Tilting Scale: This is a device that collects water until the amount of water is enough to offset the counter weight and then it dumps into the tank.
Siphon: A small tank with a built in siphon device. As the water rises in the tank, it pushes the air through the siphon device. Eventually, the water height is enough to totally displace the air and to cause the water to flow up and out of the tank. This is a fascinating device! This valve uses height to regulate the amount of water allowed to collect before the tank automatically empties.
Ball Flow Meter: This meter is placed in-line with the piping and uses a floating ball to display the water
Float Valve: This valve uses the height of a floating device to regulate the amount of water allowed to collect before the tank automatically empties.
Set includes: Tray and Footing, Electric Pump, (two) Large Tank Base, (two) Cone Tank Base, Small Tank Base, (three) Sm. Tank Center, (four) Lg. Tank Center, Siphon, Float Valve, Tilt Scale, Ball Flow Meter, Turbine Velocity Meter, Spray Head, Square Tank Bottom, Square Tank Top, (two) Small Tank End, (two) Large Tank End, (two) Tank Saddle.
Every set comes with a full color instruction book filled with building instructions and project ideas.
