The hypothesis is that the model elevator will move up and down when the spool is turned.

You will attach spindles to a board, tie strings to a cardboard box, pass the strings over the spindles, and attach a counterweight to the strings.

You will need a sheet of plyboard or strong cardboard, six spindles, a small weight, a small cardboard box, string, and six nails.

After completing the project, you will have a better understanding of how elevators work. You will observe that the elevator car moves up and down depending on the direction of the rotation of the spool.

This science project is interesting and unique because it allows students to build a model elevator and learn how it works.

Experiment variations to consider include using different materials for the elevator car and using different weights for the counterweight.
