7-2 (duct tape) 0.122 832 10 0.0985 They should have packed it in cotton balls instead of peanuts.Packed in tighter. More trials. Good Try
        They should have packed it in tighter and did more test runs until it was perfect.
         
         
8-3 0.153 1490 100 0.439 Nice job. Good Idea. Maybe try something besides a Pringles container.
         
         
7-2 (white box w/clear packing tape) 0.0695 927 100 1.55 I think it was obviously smart because the chip was perfectly intact, but I think the mass was higher than necessary due to the amount of cotton balls.
        It was good, but they increased the mass too much because of too much tape and too many cotton balls.  The idea of using the Pringles case was a good one; we thought of it as well but didn't use it.
        Good, but didn't need so many cotton balls (add to mass).
         
         
         
8-8 0.105 1410 5 0.0338 There was not variety in packaging material.  However, it was very light.
