2. This is us

3. Introduction Our project’s goal was to make a rollercoaster.
Our parts were mostly found around the house.
We purchased 50 ft. of vinyl tubing that cost roughly 20 dollars.
We also used Airsoft pellets for the ball the cost of which was around 6 dollars.

4. What it does Uses a ruberband to launch the projectile
Completes one loop
Goes through a series of sprials
Ends in a maze

7. Conclusions
The building of the project took 5 hours of work by all five team members. This time was used to design, build, yell at, and break “Pinball Tubulator Mach III.”
We encountered some problems including:
Making physics work (Thank you Einstein and Newton)
Making a standard slope
Having the ball get stuck halfway
Thank you and lets finish up now!!! We want to go on break!!
