I made a simple LEGO car factory using parts from the LEGO EDUCATION SPIKE PRIME set 45678 + the expansion set 45681.

The car resembles a Volkswagen Beetle, but not on purpose. It came out like this thanks to the large round gear racks included in the expansion set.

Teachers might find it useful to teach simple automation in the classroom.

The feature I'm most proud of is the bistable locking mechanism that allows the body to be attached on the chassis with a slight pressure.

Comment if you would like to see a video about the design process.
