Imagine you are an inventor of wacky and wild machines which can be used for anything at all! You can draw your machine, build your machine, write a story about it, even shoot a movie about it!
How big is it? Or maybe it is really small?
What is it made of?
What does your machine do? Does it make something? Can you use it to communicate with people?
Does your machine have moving parts on the inside? Or on the outside!
Think of a name for your machine that will tell people something about it.
