Our step list:

1)    A toy gun is firing a plastic ball
2)    The ball is connected by a string to a mall block which blocks a marble
3)    When the block is removed the marble is falling down a path of sticks
4)    When reaching the end of the fall it enters a small tunnel
5)    At the tunnel exit it hits a domino cube which triggers the fall of some other cubes
6)    The last cube hits a car standing on the edge of a slope
7)    The car goes down the slope and then hits a new series of domino cubes
8)    The last cube hits a small barrel standing at the edge of the table
9)    The barrel is falling down the table taking with it some more barrels
10)    The last falling barrel is connected by a string to a ball – causing to start moving
11)    The moving ball hits a toy car
12)    On the toy car’s back there is a magnet. When moving the car is making magnetic interaction with a second toy car with another magnet on it.
13)    The magnetic force moves the second car
14)    The second car hits another series of domino cubes
15)    The last domino cube hits a round battery situated at the edge of the table
16)    There is a string attached to the battery. When if falls it pulls with it a card which blocks water leak from an up-side-down standing water bottle 
17)    When the card is removed’ the water start to pour into a small jar
18)    When the jar is filled with water it falls down releasing a small hammer 
19)    The hammer hits marble which goes down a path and the falls through a hole into another path
20)    When running on the second path it hits a toy car
21)    The toy car start to move down the path and falls into a basket
22)    The basket hangs on a wire which is connected to a rubber holding a scrapper in an angle. 
23)    On one side of the scrapper there is a band aid. When the scrapper is released it hits a hand with a wound and applies the band aid on it

Why we think we should win?

Although ae were a small team we managed with the help of our teachers to build a machine that works according to the lows of physics and also performs its task. It was fun making it (You can see and hear in the films)  and we also had some very neat ideas  like the idea of the pouring water or the use of the magnetic force

 

Our suggestion for next year's challenge
