We spent the day preparing ideas for building our water wheel and generator on Wednesday. We came up with a supply list and a more detailed concept of how our machine will work and what supplies we would need to get the most out of our project.
Generator Supplies:
4 1x2x5 ceramic magnets
1 #30 magnet wire (200ft)
1 mini lightbulb
1 piece of cardboard 8cm x 30.4cm
1 large nail
Water Wheel Supplies:
Bike wheel
Plastic shot glasses
Large tub
(Supply list subject to change upon experimentation.)
