Switches #1, #2 (Blog Post #5)

In class we are designing switches that can light a LED light. My first switch design, I got from the inspiration of someone else. This switch would be a push switch. You would push down the popsicle stick and the tin foil on the popsicle stick would touch the tin foil on the cardboard. There is also a rubber band that provides the popsicle stick to go back to the original place. This is the switch:

My second switch was a very simple clapper that when you fold down the cardboard, the two tin foils touch. The fold also gives a bounced back feature that lets the fold bounce back. Here is the switch:

These are my first two switches.
