Do more experiments with corn starch Make some soap run into buckets

"File:" cannot be used as a page name in this wiki.

We need to get going with seriouns planning, aquiring materials and making our experiments work for kids. This day will be in 2 groups

• a group to create the experiments for the kids
  • make corn starch
  • play around with it
  • drop stuff on it
  • try to pour soap to create the kaye effect
• a group to create the public event
  • loudspeaker corn starch
  • kaye effect setup (continuous running, with a pump)
  • corn starch pool design
  • cleaning station design (another pump)

Hornbach is open until 19:00, we can go buy stuff the same day

Ideas:

• water pump: just use an aquarium pump
• soap pump: probably print it, c.f. pumps used in hospitals
• pool: wood planks covered with thick foil and on the top edges foam to isolate pipes
• loudspeaker: there is a plexi tube available, it's not very wide, but it's free. Put speaker on bottom, corn starch can't escape. Coat the tube with lotus-effect cleaner. (need to aquire correct size speaker(s) for that)
• big speakers: have several sets of stretched foil in a frame to quickly put on the speaker
• creating big amounts of corn starch: get a drill with mixer and solid buckets

Everything bought should have a bill with your name and the mention SciFe so that it can go to the correct budget.
