I have this science project I have to do with my friend… we have to build a roller coaster for marbles. It has to be made out of paper, you know, those thick but not really thick, smooth paper?

Can you guys give some websites/advice/youtube videos on how to do them? It would really help much!

~Kathleen~
Also — I can only use tape and that paper.
Yeah…unfortunately my teacher said I have to only use paper and tape.

Can you use more than just paper? Anyway try forming the paper into a "V" shape to let the marbles roll but you still need something to support the marbles.

The Elgin Marbles, known also as the Parthenon Marbles, are a collection of classical Greek marble sculptures, inscriptions and architectural members that originally were part of the Parthenon and other buildings on the Acropolis of Athens. Thomas Bruce, 7th Earl of Elgin, the British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire from 17991803, had obtained a controversial permission from the Ottoman authorities to remove pieces from the Acropolis. There is controversy as to whether the removed pieces were purchased from the ruling government of the time or not . From 1801 to 1812 Elgin’s agents removed about half of the surviving sculptures of the Parthenon, as well as architectural members and sculpture from the Propylaea and Erechtheum. The Marbles were transported by sea to Britain. In Britain, the acquisition of the collection was supported by some, while many critics compared Elgin’s actions to vandalism or looting. Following a public debate in Parliament and subsequent exoneration of Elgin’s actions, the marbles were purchased by the British Government in 1816 and placed on display in the British Museum, where they stand now on view in the purpose-built Duveen Gallery. The legality of the removal has been questioned and the debate continues as to whether the Marbles should remain in the British Museum or be returned to Athens.

George Gordon Byron, 6th Baron Byron-From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Gordon_Byron,_6th_Baron_Byron )

Cold is the heart, fair Greece, that looks on thee,
Nor feels as lovers oer the dust they loved;
Dull is the eye that will not weep to see
Thy walls defaced, thy mouldering shrines removed
By British hands, which it had best behovd
To guard those relics neer to be restored.
Curst be the hour when their isle they roved,
And once again thy hapless bosom gored,
And snatchd thy shrinking Gods to northern climes abhorrd!

Canto XV from ‘Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage’ by Lord Byron, 1812
