Hi Everyone :)
Welcome back!
I get asked often: "Where did you get all this stuff?" My goal is to share the real magic of science and physics- and to this end I will update here (and in my store) suggestions on where to get some of these toys, kinetic art pieces, and scientific curiosities for yourself.
Purchasing items from the links on these pages will help support my IG page of science and wonder.

This video contains and involves phenomena in each clips :
00:00 Mirror Anamorphosis: this famous print by artist István Orosz has a hidden anamorphic image revealed by placing a mirrored cylinder over the depiction of the moon in the image.
00:23 Magneto Top: a top that generates electricity and lights LEDs when spun. This top contains a strong dipole magnet which becomes the rotor in this alternator set up. A 1000 turn coil in the base can be adjusted so that the rapidly changing magnetic field of the top will induce an AC current in accordance with Faraday's law.
00:58 Reflective Wind Spinner: this one translates rotating motion into a repeating expanding (or shrinking) circle.
01:26 Lenticular Invisibility: this thin acrylic sheet is comprised of tiny cylindrical lenses which can allow images to be “out of focus” along one dimension which blurs thin images and hides them. This 70 lens per inch sheet is part of a lenticular optics kit that came as part of my thecuriositybox subscription.
01:49 Perspective Puzzle: twelve flat images, when ordered and spaced correctly, combine to produce this 3D illusion of structure and depth.
02:23 Infinity Mirror Tea-light Candle: parallel partially mirrored panes of glass create the illusion of multiple candle flames through the physics of reflection and refraction.
02:50 Bimetal Seesaw Engine: candle powered heat engine- with bears!
03:40 Nitinol Paperclip: nitinol is a special alloy of nickel and titanium that can be trained to a specific shape at high temperature- in this case the shape of a paperclip.
04:05 Steam Engine with Generator: celebrate the Industrial Revolution on your desk top with this working model which includes a horizontal piston steam engine complete with boiler, whistle and a flywheel which itself is connected via belt and pulleys to a generator that powers a street lamp replica.
05:29 Magnetic Repulsion Fidget: a strong dipole magnet is suspended between two more dipole magnets, one fixed to each end.
