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.
