<p>Has anybody ever created a Rube Goldberg project? If so, what was it?</p>
<p>yeah I had to do that in grade 8
my friend and I made a gumball dispenser</p>
<p>We did one for honors physics, it took so long to do because everything had to be positioned exactly for it to work. Plus you never knew if it would work the day it was presented. Ours worked out all the way through and I was surprised. All it did was pop open a can of pringles which we then gave to the class.</p>
<p>OMG, I love doing Rube Goldberg Projects. I was the only one in my 8th grade science class that did one. Mine was a contraption that watered two plants at the same time. =)</p>
<p>no but those are completely badass.</p>
<p>I think we’re going to do one for our end of the year project in my physics class…I was just talking to my teacher about it last week…sounds cool</p>
<p>oh we made one in 8th grade
our objective was the wet an envelop and seal it
it was NOT easy.</p>
<p>We did one this year in AP Physics. Of course, we not only had to build it, we had to design it in abstract form first and do all the calculus to predict HOW we’d have to build it.</p>
<p>It took a hella long time, but in the end we did it! It set a model of our school on “fire”. (We had cloth flames and blew them with a fan to be like fire) It was definitely badass, and took up the entire room.</p>
