Although the original waterwheel in the 1846 Robbins and Lawrence Amory was decommissioned years ago, we'll recreate our own working waterwheels using everyday materials. We also explore hydraulics and pneumatics using syringes and tubing and make a Heron's Fountain using water bottles and other everyday materials.
