    Two major event happened during this session, first, we decide to replace the infinite screw by a hydraulic pump (first image), then we make a hugh advancement in our project by printing the gear of the main piece of our project, using a laser cutter.

    During this session we really focus on the 3d assembly and simulation and due to that we achieve to have every mesurement we need in order to start the final step of the prototype, we are really close to have a first real operational version of our fountain, we just have to had some minor details and print

    During this session we focus on the modelisation on Autodesk, creating almost all the pieces of our project

    During this session we really improve the whole project, we made a first version of the project upgrading the first mock-up made the week before. The system work logically but we didn't use this much water because water can destroy cardboard 

    We also decide the "real" materials we will use like wood for the background or plastic for the place that will stock water

    At the same time we start the mecanism on Autodesk Fusion using video.

    During this session, we make the project go from a concept to reality, we decide the dimensions of all the elements of the fountain. 

    We also start to do a mock-up in cardboard

    Dimensions : 26 x 30 cm footprint

    Composition : 2 parts, one with decorations and the other with all the component screw and gears etc

    We are looking for inspiration but also planning about what we can do at home and what we can do at the school, in the Lab or in the classroom.

    Main idea :

    Use Gears, a water pump and a infinite screw to make the mecanic fountain

    And we make schematic to precisly visualise our ideas
