In my project, I am working with Garret and Donald. The materials that I need for my project are Tinkercad (to make the laser cut), a computer, a laser printer, cardboard, scissors, tape, and Garret's coin project. I plan to create an arcade game with my tools and use them, with my partners, to achieve our goal of a good project. Unique properties that my arcade game will include are a cup game that you throw balls into. My arcade game will also include a coin machine that sorts the coins that are put in.
This is the box that we will mainly use for our project. We plan to use it as the center of the game. This box will hold the cups, and be an arcade game.
This is a hole in the box that will be used to put the coins into the coin sorter. The tape is there to make the coins slide in easier. The hole is big enough to fit any coin
Here is the laser cut part of the project. We will use this to hold the cups. The holes are just big enough to hold the cups.
This is the inside of the box. Here, you can see the coin sorter. The coin sorter takes the money that the player puts into the slot. The operator will then use the hole in the back to collect the coins.
This is the finished product (apart from the extra ball dispenser that we've added recently). As you can see, the project has turned out quite well, with the cups all being placed evenly, and the box is perfect for a classic arcade design. I believe that this project turned out perfectly.

Using a laser cutter and Tinkercad on the computer (to create the stencil), and scissors, cardboard, and hot glue (to create the arcade game), I created an arcade game. My arcade game has turned out very well in my opinion, and there is not much I would like to change.
During this process, I learned that hot glue can do wonders for building things. I believe that about half of our project is made of hot glue and that it works great. I look forward to using this property of my project in my future projects.
The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Creative Communicator. It ties to this because I was creative with my work. My project also ties to this because I tried new things to make this project, such as the laser cutter.
A challenge I overcame on this project was making the holes in the stencil. Given a chance to do this again, I would change the space between the cups and the sides of the boxes. The reason why I would change it is that there is almost no space between the walls and the cups, so it's almost at least 100% guaranteed single point.
