TimeMachineFun Museum Funtington West Sussex po18 9dh 01243 576890

A museum with a difference, exhibits experiments to be explored. Some literally are taken apart so you can explore the 'science in the box'. We start with the pendulum, but its up to you where it ends up. The concept of energy -- mass equivalence considered, to try and find out the pendulum does what it does. Visitor soon realise that the journey, discovery of science, many zeniths to climb.

On display the first water meters, stands over 6ft high and now a teacher! It teaches the fact that science makes design elegant and simple, also calculus. All hidden in the cogs and mechanism, it comes alive in the TimeMachineFun Museum. Other displays include early gravity arm master, clock and other industrial clocks. A display of time and frequency in the BBC currently being developed. A pendulum as free as can be, in a vacuum. Vintage computers (BBC, Commodore Pets) and robots from the 1980‘s. Showing progression, in a visible form, mechanical, electrical, electronic to the computer age. The quest, what comes next!

Games that have scientific principles hidden underneath, explored and enjoyed. GO, a game transferred in minutes, you spend the rest of your life working out how to win the person or group opposite you. Both on a life long learning curve, but when you find somebody different to play, the journey starts again.

The environment at heart, the museum explores peoples value systems, by project lead teaching. ReclaimFun project, where unwanted items get donated, repaired, parts re-used or recycled. The are taken apart and explored, ready for direct material recycling. Some items get refashioned to make them more appealing and extend their lives. Here unwanted clutter is turned into fun. Young people explore inside these wonderful items and we investigate the science in the box.

We share information within the group we have set up, currently for master clocks (synchronome), turret clocks and industrial clocks.
