Tomato Zipline

 For this unit, project we have to make design something that will carry tomatoes to the market in Nepal. Jordyn and I will be making  a box it will be going down the flying fox, the minim it can travel  is one meter. We will be making it by hand with wood or cardboard, and we will make two hole on the side of the creation and rap some rope around the inside of the hole and we will tie it to the flying fox to make a Zipline, to travel to the market to make easier for the people in Nepal to transport their tomatoes from the top of the hills to the bottom of the hill to the Nepal market. If we succeed we have saved the people who lived in Nepal 3 long hot hours of walking uphill and downhill to transport their tomatoes to make money.

A Pulpy Predicament

In room 7 we have started a tomatoe challenge where we are in partners and we have to create a thing that can take some tomatoes at least 1m without squashing the tomatoes. You are only allowed to give your creation one push to start it off. We are only allowed to use recyclable materials and it will be due in week 6.

Today have brought some of our materials and we have started to create our device we also finished our measurements sheet. To finish our carrying device we need to stick on some wheels and add in the egg cartons to the inside of the box.

Pulpy Predicament Project

For our tomato challenge, we decided to make a zip line using a bucket, two poles and some baling twine. To make sure the tomatoes don't get squashed, we will use some egg cartons and pillow stuffing in the bucket.

There will also be a bit of string connected to it so we can pull it back up when we need it. 

We think it will be a successful creation because the tomatoes will be really well protected and it will get to its destination quicker.

A pulpy predicament

Room7 have been doing a tomato challenge and the objective of the challenge is to work in a group of two and create something that would travel  tomatoes a distance of one meter. Blake and I decided to create a slide like pipe to travel the tomato we'll get a pipe cut four lines on the top and stick pieces of cardboard with string attached, the pipe will also we filled with pillows or bubblerap. To make sure the tomato won't be damaged when the tomato is ready we will pull the string that is attached to the closest cardboard then it will roll and be stopped by the next pieces of card board. And keep doing the same to the rest until it reaches its destination. 

Tomato challenge

In class we have been assigned the tomato challenge, we have to make something to transport tomatoes without any human support and without damaging the tomatoes. This is where we are up to at the moment we will keep u updated.
