Parameters for Fantastic Contraption

Yes, I did some experiments with [Fantastic Contraption](http://fantasticcontraption.com/) ([Water sticks in Fantastic Contraption](http://blog.dotphys.net/2008/10/water-stick-springs-in-fantastic-contra…), [Torque from rotating balls in FC](http://blog.dotphys.net/2008/10/torque-produced-by-balls-in-fantastic-c…), [Basic stuff in FC](http://blog.dotphys.net/2008/10/physics-of-fantastic-contraption-i/)). But apparently, there is a wiki with some of the answers:

[List of physics parameters for Fantastic Contraption](http://fc.therisenrealm.com/wiki/List_of_physics_parameters) I assume these are values from the actual program, not experimentally determined. (Thanks for the link from commenter Badar Z)

The fun part about exploring the physics of [Fantastic Contraption](http://fantasticcontraption.com/) is coming up with new setups to test ideas. Torque is not too difficult to set up. Here is what I did: ![Screenshot 04](http://scienceblogs.com/dotphysics/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/screensho…)…
One of my students showed me this game, [Fantastic Contraption](http://fantasticcontraption.com/). The basic idea is to use a couple of different "machine" parts to build something that will move an object into a target area. Not a bad game. But what do I do when I look at a game? I think - hey…
Here is what is cool about [Fantastic Contraption](http://fantasticcontraption.com/) - it's like a whole new world, a world ready for exploring. I am Newton, and I can see if this world follows the models that I propose. In this post, I am going to explore the elastic nature of the "water-sticks…
