Create with Cardboard
Introduction
Did you know that you can engineer almost anything with just some basic materials? Engineers in the real world create prototypes, working models, out of cardboard all the time.
For this design challenge, look around for some cardboard- any kind will do! Boxes, recycled packages, paper tubes, whatever you have on hand. Then see what you can prototype! Try building a tall tower or something strong enough to hold weight. Test out your prototype and see how it performs. Make changes and keep experimenting!
Design Challenge
Create with cardboard ... no tape or glue allowed!
