ELECTRICAL LOOP

CIRCUIT Made by: Vathana Tang Soklyta

Kaing and Sreypich Chhong
MATERIALS THAT WE NEED:
Metal wire
9 volt battery
LED or light bulb
Buzzer
Wood base
Alligator clip wires
Wire stripper
STEP 1: MATERIALS
The following materials can be gotten from any
hardware store. You can take the liberty of choosing
different batteries and can solder joints together rather
than getting alligator clips. There is not just one way to do
accomplish this.
STEP 2: THE LOOP
Make your own design for the wire maze to match the
size and design of your frame or stand. The circuit design
is completely independent form the design of the frame or
stand so you can make it into whatever you want.
STEP 3: MAKING THE CIRCUIT
Start by identifying the positive and negative side of all
components. Decide about the location of the component
based on your design and install them securely on the
board or frame you have prepared. Not that only bare wire
can create an electrical contact. Carefully remove the wire
insulation form the contact points as needed with a wire
stripper.
STEP 4: THE WAND
The loop wand is a solid wire that you have made a loop
on one end of it. Wrap one end of the copper wire a round
object, like a pencil, to make a loop. The other end of the
loop wand connects to the wire with the alligator clip for
easy attachment.
STEP 5: HOOKING IT ALL UP
Connect the negative side of your power source (or the black
wire of your battery holder) to your wire maze. (We made a
hole the same size as the maze diameter, then inserted the black
wire in the hole before inserting the maze in the base board.
Connect the positive side of your power source (the red wire
of the battery holder) and the red wire of the buzzer together
and to one side of the lamp holder. Connect the black wire of
the buzzer to the other side of the lamp holder and then to the
loop wand.
HOW TO PLAY?
Now move the wand throughout the loop. If you touch
the wire, the light or buzzer should go off, indicating that
the circuit works and that you have to start over again.
Now the only thing left to do is bring your friends over
and challenge them to play!
