Hi all

I am in a class that uses Legos (mindstorms and others) to build robots.
I have to build a ping pong popper.  Has anyone done this before?  Mine
needs to have 4 simple machines in it.,  Any help would be great.

Thanks
Tina

If you have one of those Klutz LEGO Creations books handy, they show a working
ping-pong popper in the second half of the book.  That should give you some
ideas; I wouldn't lift the entire design for risk of plagiarism.  You'll
definitely need rubber bands, some sort of wind-up and release or catapult
mechanism, and optionally, a loading device.

HTH,
Ian
