You can do it with plastics

In our current exhibition, You can do it with plastics, you can find out about all the amazing things that designers and manufacturers can do with plastics which are more difficult with other materials. 

One of the subjects we have looked at is the notion of buoyancy.  It is not easy explaining in a text panel how buoyancy works but I have found this animation which makes a good job of it.

You can do it with plastics only has a few more weeks to run so if you want to see it do pop by soon.
