Scavenging
Bowser tucks into the 'heap and returns with more steel than the Forth Bridge. Hydraulic pistons, hoses and rope amount too as the team whizzes through the scrap. Back in the build shed, the All Stars scramble into action and take five hours to build a steel box. They soon pick up the pace and with the addition of a pressure gauge and a monstrous amount of welding, their design begins to take shape.
