TWEAZLES

DESCRIPTION

Galaxies spin, solar systems spin, planets spin…and the electrons making up everything around us are spinning. From the largest to the smallest, Spin is how Universe works.

By studying these educational artifacts, you too will become wiser in the ways of the workings of the Universe. Just as Newton grasped that our moon and an apple were falling to the attraction of the same force, Gravity; we know that all things from galaxies to quarks have a basic motion, Spin. Is there a connection?

Tops are a sub-class of gyroscopes, and tweazles are a sub-class of spinning tops. Tweazles are soothing and fascinating. Tweazles spin a long time.

A tweazle is a symbol of Unity, made of two seeming opposites, supportive of each other, exhibiting both polarity and a spreading field. Sort of like electro-magnetism…a model for photons? Our galaxy, with the plasma poles? Or perhaps an introduction to spintronics?

DETAILS:

Insert the ‘tweazle-stick’ (with rounded ends, it is as long as the ‘twheal’ is wide) through the hole in the center of the twheal; slide the twheal up or down, and you’ve made a tweazle.
Each tweazle is hand-made and unique.
Each tweazle spin is unique.
Tweazles cause one to reflect on the stillness at the center of spin.

SOLAR CARS CREATED BY SUNWIND CUSTOMERS:

“I really appreciate your concern with quality. It will ultimately make a better experience for our students. Thanks again!”

R.S.

“By the way, I really appreciate your well designed SolGear kits – they are proving very useful with our education programs teaching solar PV and electric motor efficiency.”

P.K.

“Hi…just want to let you know that the school project was a big success! He got an A+ on it… especially because it was an original idea.”

M.S.

“We had our *Bring Your Child To Work Day* last week. The kids (ages 7 – 13) had a great time learning about solar power and building their cars. Hearing the younger kids squeal with excitement as their cars began to move on the patio was priceless. Having the spare parts in the kits was helpful too. Overall the kits were GREAT!”

The car kits did arrive in time. The workshop was a hit! Kids had a great time assembling the kits with their parents. After the workshop, we brought the cars outside and the kids experimented with adjusting the solar panels and changing the direction of the car. It was great to watch their young minds at work! Thanks for a great product!

“Your cars are incredible, they are so much fun and are a really effective way to show how an electric circuit works with a solar panel as the power source.”

S.B.

“I just wanted to send a thank you for the fast shipping of the solar car kit I ordered. It is a blessing to get good value and fast service.”

B.K.

“About our solar panels -By far the best that I have found”

K.H.

“These kits are a lot more hands-on than the last group I purchased and I am sure the students will enjoy the project quite a lot more.”

“The kids LOVED these kits!”

Junior High School teacher in Ohio

“The solar cars worked GREAT. This activity was a huge hit with the campers and we were able to generate some excellent discussion and learning about alternative energy, climate change, etc, etc.”

“I am very pleased with the materials and have been showing the panels and motor to others already their reactions are consistently one of being amazed.”

About our customer support: “Thank you so much for using your valuable time to help us even though we were unprepared. You do not know how much of a difference you made in our project. We think that your products are FABULOUS!!”

The Solar Team

“I’ve always appreciated how much your kits bring out the “maker” in kids! … I’m over the moon that we will get to be using them.”
