Thanks and look forward to your response!|||The classic rubber-band toy is a "come-back," which is simply a can or a plastic bottle with a rubber band connected between the centers of both ends. Hang a weight, such as a fishing lead from the center of the rubber band so that it hangs down to one side.
When you roll the can or bottle away from you, the weight causes the rubber band to wind up, and after it has rolled as far as it can, the rubber band will unwind, driving the bottle back to you.
You can also use a thread spool to make a "rubber band tractor" by inserting the rubber band through the hole in the spool. Secure the rubber band to the spool at one end and to a stick, such as a heavy kitchen matchstick at the other end. The stick should be long enough to reach the ground on one side.
Wind the rubber band by turning the stick, and place the tractor on the ground. When the rubber band unwinds, the tractor will roll across the ground.
The third thing that comes to mind is a rubber band airplane. These are made of balsa wood and are available in any hobby store or toy department.
Try an internet search on "rubber band powered toys."
Every Boy Scout (and most of us girl scouts) knew all about these things in 1953. Have we gained or lost?|||wow, um idk.
