How an Automotive Differential Works

OK, so I am not a car aficionado - if it runs, I drive it. If it breaks, with a few relatively easy exceptions, I take it to the mechanic. When I do work on cars, it is usually with the assistance of a series of expletives I would rather my children not hear.

And knowing the terminology? Well, I think the doomaflogit is connected to the thingamabobber.

But I do have a strong interest in things mechanical (coupled with poor mechanical ability, a dangerous combination!), and my youngest daughter, even at age seven, is very much interested in how things work.

So I found this video very interesting and easy to understand.
