Today, we were able to talk with Youssra about our project. She brought the egg breaker and it was way easier to work with the object itself.
We explained to her what we wanted to do but she thought it could be very unstable. That is why she helped us to think of something that could be more stable. We came up with the idea of making a socle that looks like a bowl and on which we could put the egg breaker withtout it moving. We would have to make a rectangle at the borders of the bowl to put the wings of the egg breaker on it. But it is also necessary to create a small platform to maintain the front of the egg breaker stable.
Our teacher told us that to add more stability to our bowl, it would be better to make the bottom of it larger than the top.
We re-disigned our project a totaly new different way and we made a first prototype out of cardoard. It ended up working well but there were still some problems of stability. We added small plastic nails on the platform in the front to keep the egg breaker stable. In the end, it worked very properly.
We still have to make a better cardboard prototype and a 3D example for our presentation.
