Meccano "Aunt Sally" Fun Machine

2/7/2012

7 Comments

 
The month of January has seen me attempting to build up some shader skills, an essential requirement if I want to build a decent looking surfing wave for my Surfng Simulation project. This has all been rather exasperating, so now a Meccano break is called for. Digging through old copies of the Meccano Magazine publication I came across a model called the "Aunt Sally Fun Machine" which I  thought might be rather fun to build, as well as having some use afterwards as a demonstration of  physics interactivity in an amusing gameplay. If it works as expected, I'll make it available for downloading. You can follow my progress on my Meccano page.

Whether the essay introduction is downloaded as a means to learn how to write essay introduction paragraphs or downloaded to be used as the introduction for an essay the student is writing, the results will be the same – a creative, high-impact introduction.
