How Does It Work?
Why does it do that? Develop an elemental understanding of magnetism, electromagnetism, electrochemistry, radio, thermodynamics, light and optics. Simon Quellen Field's 228-page paperback, Gonzo Gizmos, Projects & Devices to Channel your Inner Geek explains processes, equipment and scientific terms -- and then, for starters, tells you things like how to make a rotary steam engine in 15 minutes from a soda can, a candle and a few scraps of rubber tubing. It's the favorite of our resident geeks -- but not for kids unless they're working with an adult. That would be a mature adult. An insured, mature adult.

Wimshurst Generator
This is an intriguing teaching and demonstration device that generates static electricity and provides a hands-on experience for students or electrophiles. (2) 9-3/4" clear plastic wheels, with finger-shaped sections of metal foil mounted around their circumferences, rotate in opposite directions with the turn of a crank. (3) brushes touch the foil sections on each plate as it turns. (1) neutralizing brush distributes the charge, and (2) other brushes collect the built-up charges being generated as the wheels turn. The charge is collected in (2) Leyden jars, and discharged through (2) adjustable electrodes. The faster you crank, the more high-voltage electricity crackles and sparks between the electrodes, producing arcs up to 2" long. The Wimshurst Generator is 15" high, mounted on a 8" x 11-3/4" laminated base, will generate up to 75,000 volts, and is as entrancing now as it was at the turn of the last century.
