Rube-Goldberg Machine

All first-year students in the College of Engineering at Northeastern University are required to take a series of classes call "Cornerstone to Engineering" to introduce us to the engineering design process and commonly used engineering technologies. As they are project based courses, they culminate in a weeks-long group project to highlight the skills learned during Cornerstone. For our final project, our class was broken into 8 groups, each of which would build a section of a massive Rube-Goldberg machine. As a class, we decided on an office theme for our machine, which influenced material and stylistic choices.
