Rube Goldberg Contraptions? Consider Pitsco's TETRIX & Roller Coaster Track

Constructing a solid framework for holding contraptions is always a challenge. Pitsco's TETRIX building system can help meet that challenge! Within many classrooms, a Rube Goldberg-style challenge is pretty common – even Science Olympiad's Mission Possible competition incorporates these types of mechanisms. Finding materials to provide a solid framework for simple mechanisms is not always so simple; however, students can use many parts and pieces from the TETRIX building system to create...
