Wooden Screw Simple Machine – Classroom Demonstration Model with Base & Instruction Manual

Bring the principles of physics to life with the Wooden Screw Simple Machine. Designed for hands-on classroom demonstrations, this sturdy wooden apparatus allows students to explore the mechanical advantage of a screw and understand its role as one of the six classical simple machines.

The large block mounted on the screw head provides extra leverage, making it easy for students to apply force and observe results—such as crushing objects that would be difficult to break by hand. The square top allows for precise measurements of how many turns of the screw equal its downward movement into the base, reinforcing lessons in mechanical physics, work, and force.

Crafted from durable particle board and wood with a mounted metal screw, this model is built to withstand repeated classroom use. The included instruction manual provides teachers with clear guidance to facilitate engaging demonstrations and student participation. Ideal for middle school, high school, and introductory physics courses, this apparatus is a reliable tool for teaching STEM concepts.
