The Mechanical Marble Run Engineer

It’s time for some awesome marble-contraptions!

Hey there, Marble Masters! Let’s get building a totally awesome “marble-contraption” using those super cool “Marblelous Fizzling Parts”! These are the little orange bits, by the way. They’re perfect for making the most amazing marble mechanisms ever!

Let your imagination run wild and come up with the most creative setup you can think of! Just remember, you’ve gotta use that trusty HEX-pin – it’s like the secret ingredient for any epic contraption! Let’s see what amazing creations you can come up with!

A quick tip before you dive into this challenge:
You might want to take a peek at the Starterset operation manual first if you’d like to brush up on the different starter set components!

Here are the steps:

• Gather straws, marbles, connectors, carriers, mounts, fizzling parts and possibly more components.
• Design the track. Do you already have an idea of what you would like to build?
• Build the track.
• Test the track.
• Improve the track.
• Complete the challenge. Once you have integrated at least the HEX-pin with one or more other fizzling parts, then you have completed the challenge!
