Ev3

The Lego Ev3 set is really good for programming and has some pretty cool sensors like a colour sensor and a movement/infrared sensor.

I was given my Ev3 on my 11 birthday last year I have lots of fun using it but I do not use it often.
You can control Ev3 by remote control or you can program it. All the downloads can be found by clicking here

 Icing Machine

I made this really cool icing machine which I found on jkbrickworks.com to show my classmates Lego Ev3 (and one of my friends wants an Ev3 now). The machine ices biscuits on a platform that rotates and moves back and forward. There are three designs that can be printed on the biscuit in icing. All the coding is on http://jkbrickworks.com/ev3-cookie-icing-machine/.

It is hard to get to the right consistency of icing. If the icing is too runny it drips on the parts, if the icing is too thick the icing takes too long to drop down to the biscuits. As a result, the parts can get messy and that's why there is a plastic wrap on the motors and components.
