Makey Makey Tile Project

We made a Makey Makey button that plays sounds when pressed

Supplies

• Makey Makey kit
• Foam
• 2 Wires
• Foil
• Cardboard
• Card stock
• Exacto knife
• Tape

Step 1:

Poke a hole in the middle of a piece of foam.

Step 2:

Thread a stripped wire through the foam, leaving a long side hanging off the bottom.

Step 3:

Place a piece of copper tape upside down on the foam and stick the wire overtop.

Step 4:

Cover the wire and copper with a piece of tin foil.

Step 5:

Cut up card stock and layer to make a thick border around the tin foil foam sheet.

Step 6:

Tape said border down.

Step 7:

Get a new piece of cardboard and place a sheet of tin foil atop it.

Step 8:

Poke a hole through the border then thread a stripped wire through the hole. Put another piece of copper tape underneath the wires edge.

Step 9:

Place the cardboard on top of the tape and then seal with tape.

Step 10:

Lastly, attach the wires hanging off with alligator clips to a Makey Makey and attach the circuit to the computer. On Makey Makey connect sounds to the button so when you press the button, it plays!
