cindy - PM - 1 HR - Rube Goldberg

Today in open lab, Timothy and I worked on the Rube Goldberg Project. First off, we tested out our windmill with Maya and Angel's team since they are after us. We found a flaw where one of the marbles fell out early. In order to fix this, we glued an extra Popsicle stick to the edge on top of the other Popsicle sticks. After that, we screwed on the servo motor to a wooden block stand and hot glued a third of a Popsicle stick to the wing of the servo motor. We then attached lego blocks to the bottom of the breadboard that a photo resistor is attached to util it matched the height of the Popsicle stick on the servo motor. We finished wiring and working on the code for the servo motor. Next time, we are going to wire up the motor controller to the windmill.
