:) I must say, what a complete and total waste of time yet very very addictive and entertaining!! :D I love it! After seeing some of you guys and gals configurations it makes alot more sense now. I just kept trying to build a vehicle of sorts to try to achieve the goal. :D Sweet!! :)
Nick 75au I must say I love the "ram rod" approach on that last one there, that was cracking me up! Nice work!

I like the shooters... I never thought in that direction
till I saw a similar solution.
This was my evening at the ball...

I was playing with this for a while. Same principle. But you CAN build a boat. :D

Totally addictive, and entirely likely to get me in trouble for not doing enough 'real' work ... :eek: :eek: :rolleyes:
Here's mine for 'Full Up' ... Try two ... (http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=2704395) :p

Nick, I had thought of a design similar to yours, beating the ball. I modified yours to do this:

Yeah, you guys (and girls) are getting obsesed with this. Wouldn't you rather be building your amazing boats (and showing lots of pictures). :D

This game is a relaxing diversion .
Now we need to incorporate some of the contraptions on a boat.
A contest maybe?

That is just too much fun. I wish they posted a score, so designs can be compared. Something like time (in seconds) multipled by the number of components.
A recent one...
