## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you get the blueprints to make the cardboard robot included ?**
A: yes,i do

**Q: The section dividers for our box are too small - they have 5 holes across the top instead of 6. Can we get some the right size?**
A: Hi there, we would love to assist you with this inquiry. Please contact our Customer Care team at 1 800 622 8339 so that we can learn more and provide additional support. Please see our Contact Us page on our Spin Master website for more contact info. We look forward to speaking with you!

**Q: what are the parts made of?**
A: All structural parts are plastic. Nuts, bolts and rods are zinc plated steel. There are some extra long bolts. I found that a brass collar was needed for reliable operation.

**Q: what does the word steam mean**
A: It is not a word, it is an acronym - you can see full stops between each letter. It is short for Science, Technology, Engineering And Mathematics.
