i remember making those things when i was a kid...of course it escalated and pretty soon an entire book of matches went into it and caught something on fire
It's an early gyroscope for boats. The little doodad in the middle is a level. If the bubble is on the right, everybody lean right. If the bubble is on the left, everybody lean left.
It's the only piece left after the famous burning of the libraries in Alexandria. It's a shelf bracket that was in a maintenance man's hand as he ran out of the building.
It's a caliper used in Roman times as they were practicing their famous shield-to-shield phalanx formation. The officers would measure the distance between each head using this tool.
Hi ! It's an antique goniometer, used to mesure small angles. It was used by the first angry birds on earth, called aepyornis. With this device, two birds (aepyornis) could kill one stone (age). Science is great !
It's a section of track from an old Hot Wheels Monorail set. Mattel quickly discontinued that product line as kids never really grasped the value of mass transit.
It was a tool used to measure the "Angle of the Dangle". But it was rendered obsolete when it was discovered that the "Motion of the Ocean" was a more important unit of measure.
The first Hotwheels ramp released in 1895. It includes a futuristic hovering horseless carriage from the year 2000. It was not popular upon release because it was too ahead of it's time.
This is a quality of life graphing instrument. One places the bubble at the top indicating ones current time. Then the bubble is released and its final location determines if ones quality of life increases or decreases over time.
Bear with me here. You know those ramps they have at the bowling alley for kids and others who can't heft a bowling ball? Well, same thing here, but for people who can't use a cue stick on a pool table. Okay, it may not be all that funny but I could be on to something here....
This is an old 1920s-era zoetrope type of device. When you look through the eyepiece and slide it along the track, you see a nice young flapper woman doing something just unthinkable. Geez, what was the world coming to?
