Solder the leads of the wires to the nails. Pound two copper nails into the block near the front of the toy. You may need to drill a hole and tie a zip-tie, or you may have to devise another method of mounting. If there's no 'feet' for the toy to walk on it's own, it may be best to mount the moving part of the toy on a block of wood with nails for stability and ease of connection.Ĭut and sand a block of wood to be about two times larger than the part that will be mounted on it.įigure out the best orientation for mounting the electronic part on the block. You might have to solder on more of the coated wire to extend the leads.Ĭarefully put the toy back together so that the wire leads extend outside the plastic body. Trace the wires to discover what elements they control.Ĭut off the wires leading to the battery pack and the switch (usually in the hand or foot).įind the motor that you want to activate (sometimes there's more than one), cut the wires close to the circuit board (away from the motor) and strip the ends of the leads. Once the fur and stuffing is removed, unscrew or cut the body so that you can see the electronic components. As you dissect, work carefully so as not to cut any wires hidden just below the surface

#CONTRAPTION MAKER WORKSHOP SKIN#

Using the exacto blade and scissors, cut away the skin and remove the stuffing from the toy.

Having electronic parts mounted in sturdy ways can help to encourage learners to move from simply connecting physical objects to incorporating circuits and switches into their creation. Some of the more common elements involve physical motion (ramps, tracks, balls, blocks), electrical parts (battery packs, motors, fans, aluminum foil), inspirational objects (roller skates, traffic cones, giant foam fingers, drawing figures) as well as objects chosen to fit a theme. In our workshop, we offer a wide variety of materials for participants to use when building their piece of the chain reaction. In the end, this results in a continuous chain reaction that goes from start to finish seamlessly, with each section having been contributed by a different participant.

The only constraint is that it has to set off the machine built by the next participant. In the Tinkering Studio, a chain reaction is always built as a collective contraption each participant is given a chunk of real estate on a table onto which to build a sequence of events. Please send said NOTECARD to Nami.Lithanos, Fluxa.Core or Faust.Chain reaction is an intuitively simple concept, but one that allows for an incredibly complex and deep investigation into the relationship between cause and effect. > To receive service from our team, please provide a NOTECARD with your transaction history. > Mod/Nocopy/Transfer items can be exchanged. > Mod/Copy/Notransfer can not be refunded since they can be duplicated.
