This past week in Open innovation, Tanner and I printed out and put together our first model of the motor lure.  This lure features a compact but durable 3d printed plastic casing with adapted hook o ring setups and a built in whole for the button that turns the motor on and off.   We took our previous motor setup with the battery saddered on and the push button and put it inside the mold to make the lure.  The design needs some definite tweaking but it sets a good president to move on from next week.  Along with this, we plan to re-sadder the wiring of the setup and smooth out the hole the button will come out of.  Also, we plan to include a more central hole for the prop to come out of along with setting the battery in place firmly so it does't move around inside the lure.
