Ben, Charles, and Mark's Monorail

Hi, my name is Ben. Two of my friends and I built a monorail with a moving car that rode along the top. Building the monorail was easy. It was building and programming the car that was difficult. The car was hard to build because it had so many small pieces to be put into specific places. The smallest mistake would wreck the entire thing. It got really frustrating. I almost destroyed it, but luckily Mark and Charles stopped me before I could get too far.

My name is Charles. I did the programming.... not much there. It was a bunch of little pictures, each meaning a different thing. It was like a jigsaw puzzle. Each combination resulting in a different thing. When we finally got it right it went up and down the track like a charm.

My name is Mark. I built the track for the monorail. My job was the most important because without the track the monorail would have nothing to run on. Building the track was kind of hard because when I was putting the stands on I usually put them on backwards or I didn't have enough pieces. There were a lot of problems but I eventually finished it.

Below is a picture. The picure shows the monorail going arcoss the track.
