Simple Machines @ Home

Simple Machines are all over the place so it was super hard to pick just one example of each simple machine:

Wheel and Axle: Dough Roller, the wheel is the part that rolls over dough and the axles are the handles.

Wedge: this is any tool that separates an item. This Cheese slicer separates or puts a wedge between the slice of cheese and the whole block of cheese.

 

Lever: the lever of this hammer is used to pull nails out of a wall, piece of wood, etc.

Screw: these are definitely everywhere but these screws are working to hold up the curtain rod.  

 Pulley

This is a type of a pulley that pulls up or lowers our garage door.
