First Project of the year and its and eggcellent one. Carter, Mason, and I built a 100% recyclable device to protect and egg as we drop it from the second floor at school. The egg survived! Above are the photos and video of our project. We used a mayonnaise plastic jar with crumbled newspaper inside as padding for the egg, we then attached strings with grocery bags as parachutes to help slow down the fall. Finally we taped a toilet paper roll to the bottom to use as cushioning during landing.
As part of both drafting an science Carter and I made a model of Saturn with a scale of 1:4.2932×10-11. The model was created in Fusion 360 and then 3d printed to finally be painted with acrylic paint to give it some colour.
Both Carter and I were tasked with creating a gravity car that must have a laser cut body designed by us in fusion 360, spools for back wheels, 3D printed front wheels designed by us in fusion 360, 2 stickers designed by us in AutoCad, and somewhere to place a PocketLab sensor that could record the distance in front of the car. The finished product would then go down a ramp and we would measure its efficiency with the help of Mr. Csuka.
Bath bomb!!! A really cool project I enjoyed making specially since I got to customize it and make it football related. I made the mold on Fusion 360 and then after 2 prototypes and adjusting little details I printed the final copy which was about 3 hours/piece. Both pieces are friction fit with the pegs that I made for it.
As part of the career discovery assignment in CLE, we were required to make a project related to the career of our choice. My career was a professional footballer and that’s why my project was to make a pair of shin pads. It took 3 prototypes and 1 final product (picture above) but I got it. I am thinking whether to continue on this as my passion project and maybe make a small business out of it. These shin pads were made in Fusion 360 and then printed on a 3D printer.
In Drafting, the task was to create an ecofriendly birdbox for a native bird here in British Columbia. We had to follow specific guidelines provided by our teacher in terms of dimensions, materials, and sizing but we still had freedom to customize it as we see fit. In order to create this birdbox, we must use Fusion 360 to create a design and Laserbox to cut out each piece out of carboard
This first prototype doesn’t have any designs or anything special to it. it was designed to test were the dimensions were working or not.
I added some writing alongside some of the walls, rounded some edges, and made a slightly better fit from one wall to another.
