Introduction: Finding Nemo Boat!

Since Finding Nemo is one and only of the superior movies ever, I decided to choose a prospect from the movie that was by far my favourite — IT was the tantrum where Nemo goes in the lead to the gravy boat, touches it, and the cute little fish goes "atomic number 2 touched the butt!" — I decided to build a replica of the Finding Nemo boat with a button that says "touch me" and as soon as the button is pressed, Nemo pops out of nowhere and starts to relieve oneself his way to the boat besides A the vocalize of the cute bitty fish going "he sick the buns!" in the background. In order to build an interactive recreation of this scene, I had to go through the following procedures.

Footmark 1: Receive Materials

- Styrofoam

- A ruler (or any other measuring instrument)

- Pencil

- knife or scissor grip

- Tape

- White mucilage

- 1 makey-makey

- 1 speakers

- 6 gator clips

- composition board

- Aluminium frustrate

- Thread (any length longer than 50cm)

Step 2: Planning and Preparing

After drawing a simple sketch of the basics of the project, I distinct that I sought-after the boat hanging down from the cap, the speakers approach from arse the boat, and Nemo coming out of nowhere from a table. After doing so, I decided happening how big I wanted the sauceboat to be, and I cut out 2 identical shapes outer of the styrofoam As well as a bottom base to hold some the sides. I secondhand the first piece of styrofoam I cut exterior to scratch out the sec identical one, and when I was cutting the tertiary composition (the one in the middle) I ready-made destined information technology was the size of my ideal width of the boat.

Step 3: Sticking Everything Together!

After cutting outer completely the necessary shapes, I had a friend hold down the musical composition where I sought-after it (because the gravy boat curves) while I applied the mucilage and record to hold the parts together. Then, I needed new pieces of styrofoam to covering up the plump for and from of the sauceboat, and I too concluded up taping together the tip of the boat. After all of these procedures are done, all that is left hand to perform is cleaning sprouted the edges and qualification things run!

Step 4: Building the "engine"

The idea behind this is for a motor with a string betrothed thereto to pull Nemo busy the gravy holder by the touch of the a button. The materials requisite to build the "engine" are 8 alligator wires, a custom made push (any kind of functional button should work), makey-makey, 8V barrage fire, a drive, string, any more styrofoam. Firstly, you need to cut a small hole on the bottom of the boat for the string to pass. Then, you need a blocker thusly that the string South Korean won't get caught in the efferent itself, I used styrofoam and tape to cover the edge of the motor. At one time this is done, in that respect should be a hole at the end of the motor which wish where the string will live bound, and the otherwise end will be tied to Nemo (which is the next step). The wires penury to Be attached to the battery, the button, and the causative in order for the button to work.

Step 5: Building Nemo

Now, IT's time to build the main object of this whole project... NEMO!! In order to build Nemo, I first outlined a rough sketch of what I thought Nemo looks like around the sized of the 8V barrage fire, I cut it out of the styrofoam and cut out another 4-5 pieces, and glued it together. Subsequently edifice the nemo, I needed a hole near the summit of its head in rules of order for the string to have a expert hold of it whilst it's being pulled equal to the gravy holder.

Footfall 6: Frame-up Dough and Makey-Makey

You need to download the sound clip of the Nemo clip where the fish says "He touched the bum" which can normally be saved along youtube. So, go to www.scratch.mit.edu and setup your scratch American Samoa can be seen in the paradigm. Once this is done, your Makey-makey should be set ascending so that it follows the instruction manual you get set on scratch, so rate one alligator clip on space, and another on ground and tinge the other ends together to assure that IT is working.

Step 7: Making Everything Operate!

Once you take in your nemo on a draw, your centrifugal, and your makey-makey set up, IT's non time to put all the pieces together! First, you need to shuffle Nemo conductive, so that when you military press the button and he touches the boat, something will react. Take a small patch of aluminium or copper magnetic tape and stick it onto the part of Nemo that will be touching the gravy boat, his direct. Once you've done this, you now demand a something conductive along the boat itself! Take 2 pieces of aluminium foil and stick them connected the gravy holder covering as such of where Nemo will come to but make sure these ii don't refer apiece past! Then, connect the alligator wires from the last step, one to each side of the aluminium enhancer. And last but not to the lowest degree, endeavour it out and understand if it works! You'atomic number 75 finished!
