Wobble –n-Leap
This is the very first project that we did when we joined the AT&T Imagineers and one of the easiest. When we first constructed this project we started with a simple base which was a fruit basket and used other materials such as tape, brads, hot glue guns, wires, wire strippers, a motor and markers. First you place the markers any where as long as they are stable. Then you use tape to hold the markers in place. Only use glue for your final result. Next connect the wires to the motor and wires to the battery and brads. Now this is the fun part. Once the scribbler is working correctly then take a stick of glue (optional) and off center it on the motor. This will cause it to rock, skip, leap or move weirdly. After that I was finished but ready to make my scribbler more difficult. Instead of a fruit basket I used a spool and instead of a glue stick I made an object that looks like an "I" which was made out of Popsicle sticks. Most people asked me why did I choose the spool and I tell them I chose the spool simply because I am always up for a challenge. There isn't anything that I would change or do different. This was a great starter project.
