Egg drop Contest- Help Please!!

I know. Another egg drop contest. But I would really appreciate any help anyone could give me. Thank you in advance.

First off, I have material restrictions. I can not use any sponges (or sponge like material), manufactured boxes, manufactured stuffed animals/toys, styrofoam and foam padding.

I also have a size and weight restriction. The object cannot be bigger than 35cm x 35cm x 35cm. If the vehicle has a parachute, the parachute must fit within these restrictions. And it can not weigh more than 350 grams.

And lastly, the contraption must hold TWO eggs, and must be able to withstand numberous drops (i.e. it will be dropped from 1 m, 1.5m, 2.5m, 4m, and from the roof of my school. Between each drop height I am not able to fix or repair anything on my contraption. The vehicle might also be thrown across the room, or flipped upside down, while falling).

Now, does anyone have ANY ideas at all?

Thanks,
Cassandra
