Rube Goldberg – #6

This is the day after our last Rube Goldberg meeting and I am feeling very nostalgicĀ for this unit passing, we had a massive amount of good memories throughout the unit, even though this unit ended I am still feeling nostalgic. I personally think that me Graham and Drew has been working very well together. Since this is the final day before we are presenting our videos we looked at other peoples machines videos. Some were amazing and all cool and stuff. Most of the video had steps that were monotonous.

Some easy parts we’ve been through was figuring out the overall structure we negotiated very well on that one. But some overall hard parts we’ve experienced is building the machine. The tricky part of building the machine is the setting up part our hands have perspiration on them so we are clumsy. Overall I think our group did great. on this amazing project

Rube Goldberg – #5

Me, Graham and Drew have been working furiously toward the goal of our Rube Goldberg. 23 fails to 1 success. 23 FAILS TO 1 SUCCESS. I presume the main reason it took us so long is probably because it was so difficult to set up! But otherwise, our road to triumph was going successfully so far, since we got our success taped we were really relieved that we didn’t have to worry that much about it since we’ve completed about 2/3 of the quest given.

IĀ  think our group cooperated Ok. The only reason I thought we worked OK was because we usually accused other people of messing things up. But that also had a limit and we didn’t go too far. Before our final success, we recorded about all 23 times and they were all stopped on our third step so we figured out what was wrong. The car going up the ramp didn’t give enough force to the popsicle sticks

Rube Goldberg – #4

The day I’m publishing this is the day we had our first success on our machine. During the meeting, we were all too impulsive at the beginning. In the end, we calmed ourselves down and constructed the machine again. Overall, I personally think that we worked efficiently and impulsively at times. For example, someone ‘accidentally’ didn’t click the ‘record’ button and the time where we almost succeeded. Even though we met occasionally we still put in a lot of our effort into this project so far. Troubles that we came across is setting up our entire machine. The problem was, sometimes our hands were unmanageable so we had to set the thing up before recording it like, 3 or 4 times. But when we got our success we were absolutely thrilled. Overall, it has been a pleasure to work with my group and I hope they do too.
