♪♪ Hi, I'm Deysi for Design Squad.
Become a top builder by designing and building your own car that can travel down a ramp and across the floor.
But the trick is, it has to be made entirely out of... pasta!
(laughs) You can use lasagna, ziti, spaghetti or any other pasta too.
Don't forget to use your noodle.
You can use any kind of glue-- plain old white glue, but please have an adult supervise if you're using a glue gun.
If you're having trouble finding round pasta for the wheels, you can use these ring-shaped mints instead.
So, let's get building.
What I'm doing is that I want to put my axle, my spaghetti, right through... so that it can spin freely when I add my wheel, and let's glue the tip of my axle so that my wheel doesn't just slip off and roll around and cause an accident.
(laughs) ♪♪ Ta-da!
Design and build your own pasta car.
Take a picture and upload it to the Design Squad website.
And don't forget to tell us how far your pasta car traveled.
We'll post a selection of the designs on the website.
Visitors can vote for their favorite one and we will see who our next top builder is.
Ahh!
