A Mark Making Machine is a motorized writing tool that seems to walk about using an off-balanced DC motor. When you attach the cork or other weight onto the axle of your motor, you put it off center. This off-center weight pulls the motor, and your Mark Making Machine with it as it spins, creating what's called a rotational vibration. Rotational vibrations allow your Mark Making Machine to walk about.

Great STEM project, but a little confusing without pictures.
