Presentation

For this challenge, my partner and I had to build a grabber using the materials listed below. Once the grabber was built, we put it to the test by using it to pick up certain objects.

As they say, desperate times call for desperate measures. Before it was time to test, my partner and I realized that our grabber didn't have a tight enough grip or force to actually pick anything up. So, we decided to put tape on the cardboard surface so the items would stick to it instead of our grabber actually holding them. If I were to make this grabber again, I would completely change the design. I would make it look more like chop sticks and I would not use string or tape in my design.
