    My son had to make a Rube Goldberg machine for his science class and then film it. So since it was due on Oct 12 we made it with a Halloween theme!
    hope you all enjoy it as much as we had fun making it!

    He came up with the basic mechanics and set up and mom and I helped him out with the glitches and the build. oh man this project is harder then it looks lol. it took us about 10 takes to finally get the one you saw. It took us about 3 weekends to build. lucky for him we had all the little props. the filming and editing was me lol. can you tell i love watching horror movies!

    Very Cool. I am impressed with all of the mechanical elements and how long it takes to go through it's routine. Going to get an "A" on that one for sure. Nice Work !

    That was very cool and a halloween theme to boot. Looks like a lot of work there and i surely smell an "A". If it doesn't get an "A" then let me know who the teacher is and then I will have the piece I need for my hangman prop for next year.

    I love the Rube contraption your son should get an A+, the video rocks as well, loved the music and transitions. I was I was half as good as you at editing.

    Are you a video editing pro?

    If you aren't you should consider doing video editing for Halloween junkies.

    I'll let you edit my video for my graveyard for this year (for practice).
