7-6P Boats

In this project I will make a boat out of tin foil then I will design it in Tinker-Cad to then 3-D print it. I will test them by putting them in water. My boat will be a pontoon. My tin foil boat held 194 pennies or 100+ washers.Using Tinker Cad , I created a pontoon boat, because pontoons can hold more weight than rafts because of the air pockets inside of the side logs. My 3-D boat held 107 pennies.

During this process, I learned tin foil or aluminium doesn't hold up well in cold water.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 Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator because I used Tinker Cad to make the boat, I recognized my right to strategically place the pennies, I used the 3-D printers to build the boat, I used Tinker Cad to see if I had a hole in my boat, did this with a group and we communicated.A challenge I overcame on this project was deciding which boat I was going to make. I was able to do it by thinking which one would make more sense.Given a chance to do this again, I would change how much plastic was on the boat and how many logs were on it. The reason why I would change it is because it would be lighter and have more air to stop it from sinking. This project connect to careers in 3-D design and engineering.
