Rubber Band Engineer

Lance Akiyama

Description

Discover unexpected ways to turn common materials into crafty contraptions that range from surprisingly simple to curiously complex. In vivid colour photos, you'll be guided to create slingshot rockets, unique catapults and even hydraulic-powered machines. Whether you build one or all 19 of these designs, you'll feel like an ingenious engineer when you're through.

Best of all, you don't need to be an experienced tinkerer to make any of the projects. All you need are household tools and materials, such as paper clips, pencils, paint stirrers and ice pop sticks. Oh, and rubber bands. Lots of rubber bands. So grab your glue gun, pull out your pliers, track down your tape and get started on the challenging, fun and rewarding journey toward becoming a rubber band engineer.

Recommended for ages 11+.
