Build Stage 1: a button, a suspense delay and an arrow that hits a target.
Press the big red button. A pause… then an arrow flies across the Lab and slams into a bullseye. It begins.

What you’ll build
Build the start of your mega machine: a big red button, a suspense pause from repeaters and a dispenser that fires an arrow at a target block. Tune the distance and delay until it hits every time, and add a checkpoint bulb.
Finish line: Your big red button fires an arrow into the bullseye after a suspense pause, and the checkpoint bulb lights.
Bonus challenge: Hide the real button among a dozen fake ones. Can a tester find the right one in under 30 seconds?
You’ll need
- A button
- Repeaters
- Dispenser
- Arrows
- Target block
- Waxed copper bulb
You choose
- My big red button's design
- My suspense pause: ___ seconds
- The warning on the button
Stuck?
- Arrows dip as they fly, so move the target closer or level until it's hit every time.
- Tap a repeater to make the pause longer. Each tap adds a tenth of a second.
- Checkpoint bulb wrong? It flips with each signal, so reset it between test runs.
