Discover the underlying science behind ten incredible inventions, from frictionless ice rinks made of BBs to an infinite Slinky staircase, and learn how to easily recreate key concepts yourself.
Short Summary
- Analyze the physics behind a room-temperature ice rink using airsoft BBs and learn about the mechanics of ball bearings relating to low friction.
- Explore compliant mechanisms through a chair fabricated from a single sheet of plywood and understand the optical illusions created by strobe frequency matching wave frequency.
- See how advanced engineering solves childhood frustrations, culminating in an autonomous, self-correcting Slinky staircase that ran for over 48 hours. This review details ten impressive CrunchLabs creations, breaking down complex principles like computer fluid simulation and binary counting into accessible engineering lessons. The guide emphasizes that creative engineering allows you to bring virtually any concept you dream up into reality.

Legend has it the slinky is still going… CrunchLabs now has boxes for kids AND Adults to grow your brain while having max fun. Get your FREE box here: https://crunchlabs.com/Rocky
The rock-paper-scissors bot uses the best winning technique, waiting for your opponent to go first
When my daughter was little and I used to play Rock, Paper, Scissors with her, she used to always say "you go first".
So the challenge is: Let the robot fight itself in the mirror, who will win?
Ah that explains why cartoon characters don't immediately fall, they're slinkies.
fun fact about ball bearings: many WW2 war machines used ball bearings and require a high amount of accuracy to be made. Attacking the ball bearing factories became a primary strategy of the allied forces.
I watched this with my son a couple of weeks ago. Today, he told me that he used the rock, paper, scissors method to beat his friends to be his class reader at the school Christmas Carol Concert. Proud dad moment
You should tune every chicken to a certain note and make a chicken organ
Anna said "I'm dead". But she is the most ALIVE & ENERGETIC "dead" person I ever saw!!! She is absolutely amazing!!!
"hey buddy, im an engineer. That means i solve problems."
