3. Design Process The Marbleous Contraption
Starts with a marble rolling down Hot Wheels track
Ends by turning on a power strip using a marble
End result, clock is turned on
Ended up being a lot more complicated than first intended
Took careful adjustments, but finally got it to work

5. Stored Energy Cup that catches the first marble Fan
Truck inside the PVC
Rocket
Marble resting in the small cup

6. Construction and Design Issues
Cup did not catch the marble
Light switch was wired wrong
Pinwheel did not pull out the dowel
Rocket would not fire
Power strip did not turn on when hit by the marble

7. Conclusions This project required lots of time and effort
Takes the simplicity out of doing a simple task
It is interesting to be able to do something like this
Learned how to work together as a team
