Whilst researching in the library i came across a book of Cam toys which i thought could make a good contribution to understanding mechanical systems. What i particularly liked about this book was the examples given were small and easy to construct and could be made rather quickly, as i wanted the exercise to be something i could complete in an afternoon and make a few variations. I think this exercise would be particularly beneficial as i will gain first hand experience of how a mechanical system works as i learn better with hands on things!
I just had a thought though? Is a pop up card a form of mechanical system or a mechanism? or is it both?. This something else aded to the list of things to explore! .......
