    notes from class:
    multiple attachments
    lashing stuff together
    sleeves
    teeth
    speedrail
    stay away from becoming too generic
    molded paper?
    putty
    sticky stuff– rice, mushable stuff
    rocks for stacking, holding other stuff in place, foundation
    interlocking tool model– craftsman
    changeable/swiss army knife
    what would tool set be? punch for leaves, pencil sharpener for branches so they fit connectors, pipe cutter
    expand on collection phase- do you need tools? how do you carry it? bag? pushcart?
    wheels, mobile structures
    see what other kids have done– web component
    geotagging
    knots
    toolbelt
    things you can do with objects you make (throwing toys, etc.)
