Week of 5/8/23

This week I decided on what to do with my dispenser. Instead of dispensing one Jolly Rancher at a time, I'm going to put a few candies inside of a plastic ball that you see at arcades. This will make it much easier to dispense and I can make the whole thing like an arcade game, I used the same design I last used with the wheel, but I had to modify it to fit the plastic balls. The first design I made was very unorganized, so I restarted the whole thing which didn't take that long since I had all the dimensions. I started printing it out of cardboard in layers of quarter inch cardboard, but since there's a good amount of layers I didn't finish. Once I am, I'll glue everything together and test it out. I also helped to bring new tables down from Metal Fab, which took a whole day. I want to be finished with the dispenser completely in the next two weeks so I can start focusing on the hoop.
