Parabola Generator

thingiverse

This tool aids educators in demonstrating parabola concepts by attaching a small container of water to the spinning platform using adhesive. As the student spins the crank, centrifugal force and capillary action create varying parabolic shapes on the water's surface. Suitable for math and science classes, this activity requires face-down printing of gears and base platform to ensure proper gear bearings and drive gear function. Adjust item size based on your printer capability.
