For this project we made a machine that can help people deliver candy while still being 6ft apart.

Supplies

-Wooden planks(3)

-Bucket(1)

-Cardboard

-Wooden stick (1)

-Tools

Step 1: Make Slide

To make the slide we used cardboard, but any kind of material like that would also work. Depending on how tall the rest of your machine is would depend on how tall/long the slide would have to be. For ours we used a 6ft long slide.

Step 2: Make Pillars and Supports

We have support for the wooden stick that will be holding the bucket with candy. We twist the wooden stick making the bucket turn upside down, making the candy fall down the inclined plane.

Step 3: Drill Holes on Top of the Pillars for Stick

We put the wooden stick through the drilled holes, letting us glue the bucket on top of it so when we turn the stick the wooden faces down, making the candy fall down the slide.

Step 4: Connect Pieces

Once you have everything built all that's left to piece it all together. We used screws to put ours together then added extra rope on the sides on the sticks to keep them from falling out of place.
