Put the bottom and top
halves of the
globe onto
the globe base. Press them
in securely.
6
Attach the
globe funnel to
the top of the globe.
7
Examine the tower assembly. The
gumballs
are dispensed from the globe at the top and
gravity pulls them down the tracks, which
spiral around the tower.
The globe can be
rotated around on the top
of the tower so that the knob and dispenser
can be positioned above any of the four
sides.
There are circular
pegs on each of the
four sides of the tower. In the assembly
instructions, the pegs are referred to from
the top down. For example, this symbol
means the second peg from the top:
2
. To
attach tracks and other parts to the tower,
first put the peg through the round part of
the hole in the track piece, then slide the
track piece down to lock it in place in the
narrower part of the hole.
The
globe funnel allows you to return
gumballs to the globe after an experiment.
The next four pages teach you about how
each track and stunt work, and the physics
behind each one. Or proceed to the assembly
steps for the first setup on page 8.
