It is not often that you can see what is going on inside exhibits. Throughout my history as an exhibit builder, exhibit ideas generally came from designers. Fabricators merely built what the designers conceptualized. In most cases, these concepts dictated that mechanics had to be concealed.
At Coyote Point Museum we have a much more "form follows function" philosophy. In addition to this philosophy, great efforts are made not to obfuscate the mechanics of exhibits. By exposing pumps, gears, mechanics and other systems we provide visitors an "honest" experience where there is no trickery modeling or simulation.
Gears and Gadgets is an exhibit that is part of our Tinkering exhibition. It showcases the beauty of mechanical systems. It is also the first exhibit to be featured as a video Exhibit Spotlight. Enjoy.
