Rube Goldberg Project

First Tier:
(There were rare times when the marble was dropped and it never got to the ramp, but it was easy to fix.)

The marble is dropped onto the book, which rolls down the cardboard slope into the long ramp tunnel.

Second Tier:
(Most of the NG's were the fact that the marble shot out of the tunnel and:

1) missed the blue ramp completely
2) it hit the ramp and missed the funnel, either knocking all the dominoes over or not.
3)It got into the funnel and as soon as the marble reached the bottom it got stuck.
4) It got into the funnel, reached the bottom, and either didn't knock over any dominoes or it only knocked over 1.

After coming out of the roll tunnel, the marble hits the blue ramp, which propells it into the funnel. In the funnel, the ball goes into centripetal force, spinning and getting closer to the center. As it hits the center, the ball knocks into the dominoes which in turn, knocks into the pendulum.

Third tier:
(Basically the most frustrating part, because getting here meant a failure, AND we had to set up all the dominoes.)
The Pendulum swings off the table and knocks into the 3 lb weight, which rolls off the ramp and knocks into the SAT book.

Fourth Tier:
(only 3 of the bad trials made it here...half of the time the hammer didn't hit the enter key, or it hit it too lightly.) The SAT book is knocked onto a set of ropes, which in turn knocks the box on the other side upwards, hitting the hammer which hits the Enter Key, causing the computer to print out a Sheet of paper.

Thanks to: Nick C. for lending the house and getting supplies, Me for editting this video in 30 minutes, Nick E. for helping build the impossible 4th tier, Wen for getting the awesome toolbox that pretty much built everything, and Mr. Kleiner for being an awesome teacher.

That is so cheap. The funnel and the printer took up so much time. Anyways, I still have to wait for my team to make the video before I can make the powerpoint.
