Step-by-step instructions to building more than 30 fascinating devices are included in this book for workbench warriors and geeks. Detailed illustrations and diagrams explain how to construct a simple radio with a soldering iron, a few basic circuits, and three shiny pennies. Projects include: rotary steam engine; optics to roast a hot dog; magnets that levitate; a generator made from empty soda cans; lasers that transmit radio signals, more. Every experiment is followed by an explanation of the applicable physics or chemistry.
