Making it your own

What can you do to make this build unique to your own needs? Here are some suggestions, and I look forward to your creative ideas.

Here are a few ideas to consider:

  • How can you add new parts to allow lines to be added to an egg or ornament vertically?
  • Could you add sensors to start/stop the program or perhaps increase/decrease the speed of the motors?
  • What types of creative media can be used to decorate eggs and ornaments? Can you sample various art supplies, brushes, pencils, and markers? Can you add paper or foil and then decorate?
  • Could you add a new piece that holds the pen/marker and decorate the object of your choice?
