 Yeah After we decided not to do autonomous, the robot took matters into it's own hand.
i'd bet it would get it's self DQ'd... or an award. - GMKlenklen [more] |

Re: Never ending Slinky?
Sorry to burst your bubble, but this wont work. The reason why a slinky works is because of the momentum and Hookes law, yet when it goes up a escalator this shifts the momentum. Sorry. Doesn't hurt to try..

Re: Never ending Slinky?
Why not try to get on Myth-Busters? This sounds a lot like what they would try to do. Plus they have connections.

Re: Never ending Slinky?
AWESOME! I'm inspired to find a neighbor with a treadmill right about now. From the video it appears that the treadmill is slanted very slightly to the right, maybe you could try propping it up a little bit to help keep the slinky center.
BTW, the website that you used was very cluttered with adds. In the future use something cleaner like http://www.yousendit.com/ which supports 1GB files and no adds, and then just post the file link. It works pretty well. Thank for posting the video. I'm thinking very happy slinky thoughts right now  Last edited by Cyberguy34000 : 26-08-2005 at 00:10.

Re: Never ending Slinky?
yousendit will only allow so many downloads though. From my experiences, it will only last like 25 downloads. I don't think rapidshare has a cap.

Re: Never ending Slinky?
Actually I was thinking, since I haven't started school yet and I get bored easily, I am going to email the Original Slinky makers and ask them if they will fund our efforts
 If yes, then CNN comes next.... updates to follow.
