AUTOMATA

My project is a ballerina automata that goes up and down and moves side to side.

The materials iI used were an iPhone 5s box, 2 pictures of a ballerina, a foam board, 2 wooden sticks, metal circles used to put around the holes that were hop punched into the box, and foam cylinders.

The tools I used were a hole punch, card board scissors, regular scissors, a tool used to secure the metal circles, a hot glue gun, and blue painters tape.

The most challenging part of the project was getting the figure on top to stop wobbling. At first I didn't no what to do, all it needed was more hot glue and a metal circle to hold the wooden stick steady.

The most fun part was looking at pictures of dancers and choosing the coolest pose to fit the motion.

​I learned that a lot of glue was needed for this project but their was no new tools I needed to use. My strategies were just to put tape around some parts of the wooden stick to make it thicker .

If I was given the oprotunity I wouldn't change anything I think it turned out pretty well, but it could have been better if I built another one out of wood.
