WEEK 6.LAB: FIRST STEPS TOWARDS ASSEMBLY

During our lab period today, we decided to work with the valves to see if we could make slots for them in the containers. The idea, which can be seen in Figure 1 below, is to place each of the two valves on opposing sides of the container in order to optimize the flow of water.With the idea in mind, we made use of various box cutters and X-Acto knives in order to make a hole close to perfect enough to fit the valves in snug.
