enviromaster enviroassess asked "make a ice cream tub rubber band car please" and as it happens I had an empty tub in the garage waiting for recycling. Safety note:- I use a soldering iron to melt holes in the plastic tub, please be aware this causes dangerous fumes so ensure you have good ventilation if you copy me. Main Components - 1 2 litre icecream tub 2 CDs/DVDs 2 Plastic balls - Roll On underarm deodorants were the source 3 barbecue skewers 2 drinking straws Rubber bands 1 cable tie Main Tools - Soldering Iron to melt holes in the bottle. A drill or a sharp spike would be an alternative Hot glue gun Here are a couple of related playlists Rubber Band Power http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB1otXh0w36OwsYIHZznUWp6 Rubber Band Powered Car #8 http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB0zJ5RHjvsw46Mio6uJjF5_ I have over 500 videos on YouTube now so I have grouped them into playlists for easy selection. This link takes you to my playlist screen. http://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan/playlists?flow=grid&view=1 Most of my videos are for my grandchildren to enjoy. OK, maybe they are for me to enjoy too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. My Channel is mainly aimed at projects I think my grandchildren would find interesting and could get involved in. I try to recycle or repurpose items rather than buy items and when I do buy items I try to minimise the costs. I usually try to make my projects as simple and basic as possible so that they can be copied easily. Other people can then make them look more realistic or exciting by painting them or adding accessories. http://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan
