The Safe Match Lighter

(Our picture is coming soon.)

For our science project, we, Ty H. and Garrett, built a safe match lighter. Some details we’ve included in our diagram are, positives and negatives about our experiment, how it works, how we thought of it, materials, and what we learned.
To start, we built a simple machine that has some benefits, and unfortunately, some negatives. One positive is you simply cannot burn your hand. The lever design prevents you from ever touching the lit match. Another is, well, you can forget those troubles with fumbling the match, all you have to do to load it is slide it into the K’Nex slot. As this memo has mentioned previously, you have to have some negatives when building an invention. A negative about The Safe Match Lighter is, as safe as it is, it is hard to transport. It’s rather difficult to assemble. The base is completely built of wood and K’ Nex. Those are the positives and negatives of The Safe Match Lighter.
Next, the Safe Match Lighter works in an odd way to light a match. Here’s how: you pull the K’Nex part that makes the match hit the strike plate which lights the match and the match also lights the candle.
Well, we thought of the Friction Resolver but we couldn’t think of how it would work. So, we thought of The Safe Match Lighter. At first, It was too simple. Then, we made it with a rolling marble forcing the candle to float across the water. That was too complicated! So, we took the simple model and added a K’Nex frame to make it better. At that, we were satisfied.
Mostly, our project is made up of wood, K’Nex, a plastic container,
match, strike plate, and a candle. That is what our science project is made up of.

To conclude, those are the positives and negatives, how it works, how we thought of it, materials, and what we learned while building our simple machine. The reason you might want to buy this product is so you don’t burn your hand.
