Design

When designing a Wind Car, you must think of the:

• Materials
• Platform
• Wheels
• Sail
• Next step in the Process

Materials

The design of my Wind Car is easy to do. I had:

1 piece of cardboard, 4 wheels, 4 paperclips, 4 popsicle stcks, 1 piece of paper, 1 binder clip, 3 dowels, and 1 glue gun

The Platform

I plan to use the cardboard as the body of my Wind Car. The two popsicle sticks will to hold the two paperclips together.

The Wheels

The axels were to go through the loop in the paperclips. Two wheels will be attached on either side of the axels.

The Sail

The binder clip will hold a stick as a mast for my sail. I will shape the said like a real ship's sail. This design is chosen because when a sail boat catches the wind, it goes fast.

The Process

Now it's time to put the design plan in action. Follow me as I make the Wind Car a reality!
