Ray used pliers as a switch. Alicia made a push switch out of foil and craft foam.]]> 2021-10-07 21:00:30 UTC https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1800931028 https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1803313514 Thinking about wearables…I taped wires to the back of the zipper (positive wires on one side and negative on the other), so they complete the circuits as the zipper is zipped, lighting the LEDs on the right in sequence. ]]> 2021-10-08 20:54:04 UTC https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1803313514 https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1805246084 Wanted to make something that used both motor speeds- great fun! - Tim B.]]> 2021-10-10 11:51:48 UTC https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1805246084 https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1816687040 Henk

This way the motor didn’t move about. ]]> 2021-10-14 13:24:37 UTC https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1817024011 https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1817262734 Luckily I had 2 clothes pegs of different sizes.

I repurposed the small pulley from the pegboard kit as an adapter for the chopstick.]]> 2021-10-14 15:10:13 UTC https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1817398047 https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1819082080 Just thought I’d share this as we don’t all have equipment to make complex characters. I’m using washing up sponges, just cutting them into shape with scissors. I glues the features on with gorilla glue but I’m sure other glue would work. It’s a bit messy but easy to vacuum up afterwards. It takes a marker pen too, if you want to add to it. I attached some thread to the back of his head so he can open his mouth. ]]> 2021-10-15 07:17:35 UTC https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1819082080 https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1828131223 This is the first version of may hand held automata for 4-6 year old girls. It is headed to the burn pile because it is too big and too narrow. Now, I'm beginning the second version. I'll try to put the build on the pad.]]> 2021-10-19 18:18:06 UTC https://padlet.com/wonderfulideaco/ATGW1circuits/wish/1828131223
