Balancing Scale
Steps in making the Balance scale (use pictures for guidance)
Brainstorm ideas then collect the supplies needed
Start with making the two A frame structures using a protractor, pencil, and saw
Drill in one hole to each of the A frames so the dowel rod will fit
Drill a hole in another piece of wood do the dowel rob will go through it (In the middle)
Drill in holes to the buckets to pull the chains through and connect them at the top to make a point
Connect the two buckets to the piece of wood that the dowel rod goes through with a S clamp
Piece everything together and make sure the scale is balancing
