Leo and Matt add a counterweight to the back of their motor driven toucan beak that opens and closes, a challenge for the players of their game as they strive to throw a ball into the toucan’s beak. The tubes return the ball to the player for another try. The boys learned that a counterbalance takes some of the load off of the motor so it can work more efficiently and raise the beak higher.
