This is my 3rd post for Tech, and we are still working on automates. We hot glued the box together, which houses the gears that make the motion happen, and my teacher used a laser cutter and cardboard to create my cam and my follower. My cam is a circle that has a hole in it, and my follower is an avocado shape, also with a hole in it. To make these, we used an app, Vectornator, and we made shapes for our cam and follower.
So far, this is a really fun project, and I can’t wait to see my final product. The motion that is going to happen on top is a warrior with a sword that is in a chopping up and down motion. I can’t wait to finish this project, and I can tell it’s going to be really fun from here! 😁
