Merry-go-round - Instructions

Description

A crowd favourite at any theme park.  This build spins the carriages and through a simple ramp and slider mechanism, allows the carriages to rise and fall as they travel around.  The instructions include some simple builds for the carriages, but there is nothing stopping your students from creating their own with simple materials like cardboard and plastic, or even 3D printing!
