Cardboard Construction: Ramblin' Wrek

Get ready for a hands-on engineering adventure! In this interactive workshop, you will build your very own Ramblin’ Wreck cardboard model using a custom kit packed with laser-cut pieces. Along the way, you’ll master 4–5 creative cardboard joining techniques engineers use for structural strength.
During the program we’ll dive into the science behind cardboard—discover how its strength and flexibility change with flute direction and ply thickness—while you put theory into practice. By the end, you’ll have a sturdy, eye-catching creation to take home and show off!
