We did a raw drawing of the crane we would build

We drew our crane in Solid Works and afterwards we used a laser cutter

When the lasercutter is done, pick up the pieces and if everything went well you should be able to build the crane.

We used a lot of glue to hold it together and at the top of the crane we put som duck tape on so it will keep it together.

We glued the string to the DC electromotor and the battery to the crane.

Afterwards we used a soldering iron to connect the battery to the switch and to the motor.

At last we used duck tape to attach the switch to the battery
