Develop and Plan

Model/sketch your idea – sketch using multiple perspectives (by hand, ideally): label measurements/sizes, desired materials, fasteners/adhesives & techniques needed for construction

This product converts energy from potential energy to elastic energy. I will need the following materials:

  • Wood pieces x4
  • Wooden sticks x10
  • Wooden cylinder stick x2
  • Elastic band x4
  • Bottle caps x8
  • Straw x2
  • Metal stick x2
  • Hot glue
  • Saw

What techniques will you need to learn/use? How will you learn this?

I will need to use hot glue to stick the wheels and body together and stick the launcher as well, I already know how to use a hot glue gun. I will need to learn how to use a saw to make this design. I will learn this from the design center teacher, he can teach me how to safely use the saw to cut the wood in a straight line.

Make a plan for time/schedule and check/bring/ inquire about materials
