The Nerdy Derby at MakerFaire tends to be a no-rules race of crafted cars. Here, we'll channel that energy on a smaller level as we make mini paper cars to race.
Details
Timing:
Thu 4:00 PM - Thu 5:00 PM
Location:
Westin
/ Senate II
Long Description:
Explore forces and motion as we build our own simple gravity-powered cars, customize our creations and then race them on track. Everyone will build a simple paper chassis they can decorate. Then we'll customize our race cars with wheels, axels, weights, and more before racing them. This is a fun and engaging engineering experience for anyone. Children under 8 should have a helper adult for this activity. Dress for mess, please.
