tinker ball 3rd time

The third time we had to see how many items we can use to get it to work.
Next trial we had to make it work.
The items i used were a wooden object with a srew, a white funnel,a hammer,and a funnel cup thingy.
The first time i used it i released the ball to see how it would work.
It didn't work so i started moving things around.
Once i moved some things around it still didn't work, so i kept moving things around .
Even though i moved things around it still didn't work.
So the next time i took a few things out and released the ball.
It almost worked so i moved things around and released the ball again.
It worked, and i was happy.

The second time we had to see how few items we can use to get it to work.  Once it works we had to press the print screen. The second trial i had to use only few items. I used a gear, a hockey stick and a wooden object with a screw in it.  First i put the items in a certain place then released the ball to see what would happen. It didn't work, so i tried  rotating some of the items. Then released the ball again. The result came that it almost worked.Then i saw that it almost worked, i just had to move some things around. I moved things around,released theball.and it went in.

REFLECTION_TINKER BALL

Today i played the tinker ball game. I played it on the invention game. It was
a fun game. The main idea of the game is to get the ball into the cup using different
items to get it in. You can rotate the items and  place them where ever you want as
long as it gets into the cup. With me it took about three times to get it right. I used
a wooden item with a screw, two tunnels. a gear, and a hockey stick. The first time i
put everything together it didn't work because i didn't have enough items.
Then the second time i did it i almost had it but not quite. The third and final time i did
it i rotated and moved things around then released the ball and it work. Yay! That was fun.
