on The second version was the same except with cups knocking over instead of popping a balloon. We didn’t know what to do for awhile because it wasn’t working. I was thinking it was the ball that was the problem. Need to give it some more thought.
Ayyan and I didn’t get to get a win. He had to go home later, so we would have to try again tomorrow.
on So when me and Ayyan were working, we failed. First we tried to make a ball hit the car, then that car hit the marble and the marble hit the dominos and the dominos hit the ball and that ball was going to roll down and hit jenga blocks stacked with a nail and the jenga blocks were going to fall and pop a balloon.
on The Rube Goldburg project is going to be at my house in my room. I think a good place for it would be my table, it’s almost perfect for a Rube Goldburg project. If I can’t do that, i’ll place is somewhere in the basement, or on my living room table, mainly because it’s big and will fit my entire project on it, but, I have cats and dogs so they might go in there and mess it up.
I’ll find a location, even if it takes a little while even though it probably won’t.
on The coke bottle bottom is going to be cut off and books are going to hold it up. I’m probably going to have some wood or more books to hold up the hot wheals track. The car that will get hit by a marble is going to roll down and hit another marble (what i said last blog post.) I think this project is going to go well.
on My plan is that there’s going to be a bottle with string and a golf ball. The golf ball is going to hit a car that will roll down some hot wheel tracks, and the car is going to hit a marble. The marble is going to hit some dominos; the dominos are going to hit another marble; and the marble is going to hit some plastic cups. The cups will knock over some taped blocks, and the nail taped to the blocks is going to pop the balloon at the end.
If it fails, I’ll have some issues because it’ll be quite a challenge to put it back together. If the bottle falls I can just put it back into place, and if the golf ball connected to the string falls and breaks the string, I’ll have to cut some new string to replace it. The bottle should be okay, because it’s supported with the rocks inside the bottle.
