Egg Fling Barboursville Middle School
LEGO After School
February 19, 2004
Using one simple machine set,
make a way to fling an egg into the basket.
Challenge: be able to do it from exactly 1 meter.
All five different designs worked.
A stable upright was key.
Figuring out the size and placement of rubber band and other pieces
was the biggest problem to solve.
Each project was to have a release mechanism to activate the egg motion.
