Description: For this project, we were told to make a machine that would despense candy from a wooden box. In our design, we have to use a tool that would spin so the candy could be distributed- so we used a Microbit and Servo.
Brainstorm: We immediately knew that we wanted to use laser cutting because it takes much less time to print out. We built our design in TinkerCad and then cut it. We made many rough drafts in TinkerCad before we cut our final idea.
Procedure: First we started creating our design for the candy dispenser. Then we cut some of our first pieces. After correcting some of our mistakes on the build, we recut and started assembling. On our 4th day, we started by realizing that one of our main pieces was too long and we had to redesign it. We kept recutting and reassembling until our final project was done.
Soul reflections: The strength of our project was our group work. Our opportunity was to make an amazing project and we did that. We understood what we had to do. Our limitation was that ouur project wasnt thourouly planned out.
Wiscr: we were clear communicators because we asked for help printing when we needed it. We were insightful and critical thinkers because we figured out ways to solve our problems.
