Step-by-step solution

Upward and Forward gives you stone slabs that must be detached and reused as bridges, moving steps, and a final launching arm.

Make the first bridge. Use Ultrahand to take the slab from the right wall and attach it to the far end of the standing platform ahead. Cross it.

Move the slab to the gear. Detach that same slab and attach it to the moving gear on the left. Step onto it when it rotates within reach, then ride across.
