Egg Drop box ideas?
When I was in highschool I used a nerf ball and stuffed the corners with tissue.


I then used packing tape to make it in a box shape.


My egg survived.
Reply:i didn't quite make an egg drop box like that, what we did was we had to make our boxes and then drop them off the side of the school without them breaking. mine worked, and what i did was to inflate sandwich size ziploc bags and use those as cushioning
Reply:Well, we had this in my school once and their are lots of good ideas. Some of the best were filling the box with jello, packaging pellets, and bubble wrap. most of the winning ideas had a very soft material close to the egg, a hard, shock absorbing material after, and a water or jelly to absorb the impact.





HOPE THIS HELPED
