Description:
Karo syrup is between a rotating cylinder and a plexiglass container. A spot of colored Karo syrup is placed in the apparatus. As the cylinder is turned the spot spreads out. The spot can be brought back by reversing the direction the cylinder is turned. Illuminating the cylinder with a lamp increases the visibility.
