TEAM NOVA started building the device on the 6th day of Impactlabs. We decided to go with wood for the structure of the device for prototyping and use a plastic ball for the floater. On Day 1, we planned to finish building the clip that holds on to the plastic tank
Building the wooden clip
First we decided to cut a block of wood into the desired clip as shown below. We had some difficulties shaping the wood. But in the end, we got our desired clip. Below is the 3D model of the wooden clip we were trying to get and the shaped one we made in the lab. Fairly similar huh?. Day 2 would involve building the other end of the wooden clip which contains the shaft and maybe build the shaft itself.
