Pulley Blocks | Experiment Kit from 10 Years

Lifting heavy loads with ease: the pulley blocks make the golden rule of mechanics tangible. What you save in force, you pay for in distance. It starts with the loose pulley, moves on through the simple and double pulley block and ends with the compound block.

Instead of a formula, it begins as a game of strength: pull, compare, marvel. An ancient technique that suddenly makes sense because you are holding it in your hands.
