The Museum of Unworkable Devices

http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/museum/unwork.htm

This is a site that makes you think. Check out inventions that
didn't work, and then try to puzzle out why they went wrong.
Definitely a site worth exploring. It's also very educational and
written at a level where almost anyone can understand.

The main gallery includes: It'll Never Work!, Overbalanced
Wheels, Stevin's Problem, Friction and Idealizations, What about
free energy? Buoyancy Motor, and Capillary Motor.

And that?s not all, there are more galleries. My favorite was
"The Gallery of Artistic Impossibilities", which explains the
principles of artistic illusion.
