Atom construction kit

My son needed to make a carbon atom for his Honor Science class. He decided that he wanted to make to coolest project this teacher had ever seen...

So we sat and chatted a bit, and came up with this project.

A 3-D printed 3-D carbon atom with rotating LED electrons.


This project serves as a great introduction to some nice making skills: 3-D Modelling and Printing, Soldering, Microprocessor programming, and creating an assembly vs. single parts.
