Swinging Balls
The classic swinging balls, to amuse you on slow days in the office or physics lab, and to demonstrate Newton's Third Law. Drop one of the five hanging balls, one flies out from the other end; drop two and two fly out; drop three and it's amazing. The balls are set in a 7" x 9" x 9" high wooden frame. Isaac didn't invent these mesmerizing toys, by the way. That took Simon Prebble (whom some of you may remember as the evil Martin Chedwyn on "As the World Turns") who had an energy transference inspiration in 1967. (Where else can one learn these things?)

Runs Like A Top
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Actually, it runs like an electromagnetic top, which is to say for a week or so, or however long the 9V battery lasts, so the manufacturer says. As we type, the one on the desk has been spinning for a touch over (5) hours and doesn't look tired. The black-plastic base is 3-1/2" dia x 1-1/4" high, with a secret compartment for the battery - so you can lie to people about the mysterious physics of spinning tops. The 1" tall top itself is silver and oil-can shaped.
