CU's page for the general public:
Physics 2000 :
Fun (and toys)
These links are specifically just for buying toys.
(All suggestions from Mike Thomason, who is responsible for all the
wonderful lecture demos we have had all semester!)
-
scitoys.com is my absolute favorite.
MatchRockets.com overlaps but I prefer the simplicity of SciToys.
- edsci.com Vast.
- Third place is a tie: Best sources for many specialized teaching
toys.
