Final Testing

The purpose of this project was to construct a structure that will protect a raw egg from a fall.

The directions were to use any amount of A4 paper and tape to build a structure with specific requiremtnts that can adequately protect an egg when it is dropped from a height.

I was suprised the our structure acted as a trampoline and caused the egg to fly out of the structure because I was expecting the structure not to be soft enough, but I guess it was too soft.

Our egg Nog survived the testing because ater it landed into the structure, it flew out of it and landed onto the fields "grass". I think the only reason it survived was because the "grass" and ground is really soft, and if it was concrete the egg would just have flown out and cracked.

What I would change about the design is I would add a cone shaped tunnel. So that if the egg would have flown back out, the cone would prevent it from going out, but not in.
