The Snake Rope

A bridge on pillars that leaps across two chairs and snakes over the table.

Sawyer's second blueprint, and his first one that goes sideways! Three pillars hold up a long beam. It crosses two chairs, drops down, and turns into a zig-zag snake on the table.

A grown-up finishes the order. You print it and start building.

What you need

  • Two chairs and a table, lined up next to each other
  • A grown-up to help hold the beams while the magnets click together
  • A printer, or save the blueprint as a PDF

Did you know?

Bridges and buildings use pillars (engineers call them columns) to carry weight down to the ground. The longer the beam between two pillars, the stronger it has to be. That's why Pillar C stands right under the lower beam.
