A clock

Initially, we planned to build a mechanical clock powered by gears. However, after exploring the design details, materials, and complexity involved, we decided to shift our focus towards a new and exciting project: an electric frisbee launcher.

We modified our project because we discovered that there was little information available on mechanical clockmaking, but also because we didn't think it was an easy project to carry out. Furtheremore, a lot of people wanted to make a clock, which led us to change the project.

During today's session, we created detailed plans for our electric frisbee launcher, deciding to use a single motor for simplicity and efficiency. The launcher will operate using a single motor-driven wheel that spins rapidly, transferring kinetic energy to the frisbee and launching it accurately and consistently.
