We downloaded the application and loaded the design of the flipper onto this application called FlashPrint. After we loaded it on, we played around with the application to see exactly how it worked before we tried printing the flipper. ]]> 2018-03-05 18:08:58 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/238250156 jmentesana15 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/238295291 2018-03-05 19:08:07 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/238295291 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241457390 2018-03-13 15:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241457390 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241458936 2018-03-13 15:53:59 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241458936 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241459241 2018-03-13 15:54:22 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241459241 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241477620 2018-03-13 16:19:08 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241477620 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241477811 2018-03-13 16:19:25 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241477811 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241477991 2018-03-13 16:19:39 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241477991 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241479221 2018-03-13 16:21:30 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241479221 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241479422 2018-03-13 16:21:47 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241479422 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241482232 2018-03-13 16:25:31 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/241482232 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/243652802 Joe and Cat worked on finding new ways to discuss the building of the final prototype.

We updated the process journal by explaining everything that we have been doing. We used the "Sketch Up" program that we downloaded on our macs to build our final prototype. We then organized the Padlet better. We organized it better by first adding another category with memes about physics to get extra credit. We then added more questions and moved the questions and data around so the order it is in is an organized order. We made sure that the way the Padlet is set up and organized makes enough sense so that you can understand it well by looking through it and viewing it from an audience standpoint.]]> 2018-03-19 17:36:09 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/243653721 jmentesana15 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/245546333 Today, after unfortunately putting it off for like two days, having people have theres in the printer before us, we put our final prototype in the 3D printer for it to start printing. ]]> 2018-03-23 16:14:26 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/245546333 jmentesana15 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/245595578 The device needs to be connected to an electrical circuit, including a working solenoid of a pinball "flipper."]]> 2018-03-23 17:45:24 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/245595578 jmentesana15 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/245597616 The solenoid movement turns into the desired movement by going from pushing up the spring around the pipe to trigger the flipper to having the flipper be triggered to flip up which is the desired movement that needs to occur.]]> 2018-03-23 17:49:09 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/245597616 jmentesana15 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/245598529 The solenoid pushes the metal to the middle.

Although, before doing research, we had to figure out what we would be focusing on. We decided we would focus on the flipper, the pinball flipper. So we then looked at what we needed to accomplish and put that it into action. We picked a theme that made our Padlet more appealing to the viewer and took organization to another level. We looked at the requirements for our Padlet and our presentation overall. We then discussed it and figured out that we needed to answer the following questions given to us. We made a spot for those questions, a spot for the videos we might find, websites we found informational, screenshots we will soon have of our 3D printed items, and many more. ]]> 2018-03-26 22:03:34 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246302112 jmentesana15 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246302673 Cat and Joe finished the prototype file and are ready to 3D print the prototype. We got to this point by going over the prototype through Sketch Up over and over again until we came to one that worked for us. We then both looked at the way how our Padlet is presented. We realized that the way it is presented is not really an easy way to view our project and that looking at it does not give you a very well understanding of it. Because of this, Joe took organization to the next level. In other words, after discussing it together, Joe took the Padlet and changed the format to it and organized it better so that the audience can have a better understanding of it as well as the two presenters, ourselves Cat and Joe.]]> 2018-03-26 22:07:31 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246302673 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246882271 Joe and Cat updated more of the process journal. The process journal is where we state everything we are completing. We made sure that the audience will know what we did, how we did it, and in what order that we did it in. We need the Padlet to look presentable. By having these journal entries, we make ourselves look very presentable and we give off a tone to the audience. This tone we give off shows that we know what we are doing. Giving information of everything that we have worked on so far, what we are working on at the moment, and what we will be working on next and throughout the whole project, helps the viewers know more about our project and have a broader understanding of it.]]> 2018-03-28 13:23:40 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246882271 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246882528 Today, Cat created a design of the flipper in SketchUp. "Sketch Up" is the program that we downloaded on our MacBooks for 3D printing. While Cat worked on the 3D printing potion to our project, while Joe worked on research and Padlet organization. He did more research and organized the Padlet better. To organize the Padlet better, we took the categories that we created and filled them with much more information about our project and the Pinball Flipper itself, which is what our project is on. Both of us worked on this part of the summative more by starting to add more pieces to each of our categories. This consisted of images, videos, websites, questions answered, and many more.]]> 2018-03-28 13:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246882528 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246883620 Cat and her father drilled a hole into the printed prototype and stuck the rod into the hole and gorilla-glued it tight. Cat then let the glue dry and started to develop a plan to finish this project. Cat wanted to find an efficient way to put the solenoid together. ]]> 2018-03-28 13:26:22 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246883620 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246887939 We decided, out of all the options we were given, that Joe and I would make a Pinball Flipper Mechanism for out Pinball Summative in Physics class. We researched and developed new ideas and how we should make this work. Our results came out as planned and it was overall a great project to complete. We enjoyed working with a 3D printer and we are happy to be able to learn how to use it and how to incorporate it into this project. ]]> 2018-03-28 13:33:16 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246887939 csummers20 https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246891542 We learned that a pinball flipper is a mechanism used to hit the ball within a pinball game. The pinball flipper is usually made using hex coils and a flipper button. Generally speaking, when the flipper is triggered by the solenoid, a high magnetic field is produced that pushes the flipper up in the desired movement.]]> 2018-03-28 13:39:27 UTC https://padlet.com/csummers20/z9n49x0a6mwq/wish/246891542
