Maker Jr. Buoyancy Set

thingiverse

Rather than just designing a boat, we designed a modular playset that lets anyone create their own unique design and explore the fascinating world of buoyancy. Let your child tinker, unleash their imagination, and actually learn with Maker Jr.! In this exciting set, your child can discover the science behind buoyancy and master the art of making a boat that floats effortlessly! We're grateful to MakerBot for supporting the #MakeItFloat challenge! PLA from MakerFront is available at http://www.makerfront.com/. Take a look at "the hexagon raft", our example design, which can support three US quarters - but remember, this is a modular playset, so don't be afraid to try out your own creative designs and explore the properties of buoyancy! Feel free to customize the design to fit your personal style. We can't wait to see your makes and remixes! Enjoy the first Maker Jr. play set!
