The 6 pulleys include the one small one – I modified the shopping list to reflect this change.

You’re right – it’s not a walnut but rather a nut that threads onto a bolt. Sorry for the confusion!

Good question! The order link is on the experiment page here.

Another question: It says under Hydraulic/Pneumatic Earth Mover to see the website for details about ordering the kit. I don’t see a link for that. Where should I look for this and the glassware items?

Thanks again,
Mindy

Aurora,

I have a few questions about the shopping list here. Under Pulleys one item is 6 pulleys and then another one is fishing line and one small pulley. Does this mean that we need to get 7 pulleys or can we use one of the 6 with the fishing line?

Also, when you say “large, heavy nut” my first thought was walnut, but now I’m thinking you must mean like nut/bolt type nut. Could you clarify that for me?

Thanks so much,
Mindy
