My class started building maglevs. Maglev stands for magnetic levitation. Maglevs are really fast trains because they have no friction. There are about 4 maglevs in the world. My group had a bunch of magnets, tape, a box, foam and manila folder. We used those supplies to try to make a maglev. The hard part was trying to make the magnets repel. It was hard because at least one magnet would attract. It was really frustrating. The track was manila folder and the train was a piece of foam. We taped the magnets on the track and on the bottom of the train. We were also group 4. We used ring magnets and strip magnets.
