Power Spring Slinky

Power Spring SlinkyThe Power Spring is a classic toy and seemingly simple, but listen to this… The Power Spring was invented by the naval engineer Richard James in the 1940s. It’s been used in NASA physics experiments! The Power Spring is a helical spring that stretches and compresses with the aid of gravity and its own momentum. It travels particularly well down stairs, moving end over end like a strange little creature! The Power Spring has even been used as a radio aerial in times of war and as a teaching aid in the classroom. What will you do with yours? Whether it’s simply your favorite toy, a gift for a loved-one or something even more educational, you can be sure that you’ll enjoy your Power Spring to the nth degree. The simple things are always the best! This item has been in the warehouse for some time and the box is quite tatty. Product unused.
