The next part of the day we had to get put into groups as we had to plan how to make a bridge from one table to the next. It had to be suitable for a boat table to cross underneath it and it had to be able to accept the weight of a remote control car. I think our group found this a bit difficult because we only had 4 people, and as we hardly knew each other, it was a struggle to get comfortable, but we went out to have some lunch and plan and we ended up thinking of a good idea. It was simple but it worked. There was a bit of a a problem when creating the bridge where the two bits of cardboard didnt match up and therefore we had to accept that, However, it worked in our favour as was able to use it as a jump.
These are the photographs and a quick slow motion video:
