My entry for the #MakeItFloat challenge. I originally meant to make a floating raft with 8 floaters around a center base, but changed my mind quite quickly into another concept: a floating candle.
I decided to make a few calculations regarding the maximum weight/mass of the floater, and then predicting the amount of mass that the object could hold, and see how close to reality that prediction is.
From the calculations below, we predicted a maximum theoretical load of 125 g, though anything
