Exhibits
We have built over 100 different science museum exhibits, mostly for the Cambridge Science Centre. These have included electrical generators, ball runs, stick insect cages, logic blocks and dissected household items.
We think that 95% of the time a small exhibit can teach and fascinate your visitors just as much as a large exhibit. Plus they have the advantage of being much cheaper, and you can get 2-3 times as many in the same space, allowing your visitors to explore more science, and making it more likely they will find something that inspires them.
A ball run is a good exhibit, but if you add a way of lifting the balls back up to the top again you get something great.
There is so much engineering we take for granted, looking inside things gives you a different perspective.

This cloud chamber allows you to see tracks from individual alpha and beta particles.
