Testing and Evaluation

After finally getting my final product together it was time to test it. I first opened the container to put in place a couple of toothpicks. My toothpick consisted of a lever which will allow to release a single toothpick at a time. The toothpick dispenser consisted of plane which is curved at both ends downward, with a small lip at each end. The curved plane hangs slightly over the edge of the housing chamber, with the small lip outwards. This part acts as the lever for dispensing a single toothpick. The plane moves back and forth,  allowing movement inside the chamber. My toothpick dispenser was a final success. It was able to hold, release, and keep toothpicks clean. Some problems that I encountered during the testing was that the chamber was slightly straight rather than curved. Since it was straight the toothpicks weren't able to be released. Another problem was that the lever wasn't going back up to keep other toothpicks from falling. I adjusted the chamber and the lever to allow only one toothpick to be released.
