Cut materials.Ĭut out x5 3.75" and x3 1" diameter disks from the scrub pads, x2 3.75" diameter disks from the window screening, and cut apart as many straws as needed (about 30-40 straws) into 1.75" segments. These tabs will hold the items in the jar in place, preventing them from falling through the spacers. Bend the tabs inward to 90 degrees with the help of a heat gun and needle nose pliers. From one side on each spacer, cut three tabs, 120 degrees apart, 1/4" deep and wide, using a hacksaw. Use the heat gun (or hair dryer) to accentuate the curve of the segments, making them easier to fit into the jar. This will allow you to squeeze the spacers into the jar. Then, cut out approximately 2 inches out of the segments, opening the ring. Create the spacers.Ĭut off x2 1.25" wide segments of the pipe connector on either side.
Sand the edge of the hole in the lid from the top to give it a sharp edge, which is important to creating laminar flow. Be careful while drilling the hole, as the plastic may fracture, as shown(1), if you drill too large of a hole at too fast a speed. It is best to create a pilot hole with a small drill bit first, and then slowly increase the size to 1/2". This will be the hole from which your water flows out. Drill a second hole of 1/2" diameter in the lid, also in the center. Cut or sand off any bits around the edge of the hole. This will be where the adapter screws in. A brake to bend metal(optional), or a bench viseįirst, drill a 3/4" hole at the bottom of the jar, in the center.Heat gun(optional), or a household hair dryer.Dremel with attachments(you will need a cylindrical and conic attachment for sanding).Universal Laser Systems laser cutter(model used is no longer sold, but others are available).x3 1.125" diameter plastic furniture glides.Spray paint (doesn't have to be this color).x24 sheets of 1/8" thick, 12" x 24" birch plywood.x1 #6-32 1/4" Phillips pan head machine screw.x1 3"x3" sheet of cast acrylic (you'll cut a 2.75" diameter disk from it).x2 #8 1" Phillips drive sheet metal screws.x1 1/8" thick, 1/2" wide flat aluminum bar.圆 #8-32 1/2" Phillips drive machine screws.x3 #6-32 1" Phillips drive machine screws.x1 1/8" thick, x 3/4" wide flat aluminum bar.x1 roll of aluminum window screening (you won't use much of it).x1 pack of straws, preferably 1/4" diameter (you'll need to use about 30-40 straws).x1 pack of scouring pads, about 1/4" inch thick (you'll need to use 2-3 pads).x1 pipe connector(to be used as spacers).Although some questions remain regarding its precise thematic fit within EPCOT and the relatively minimal inclusion of Moana elements, the experience is a welcome nod to the park's legacy of innovation and a glimpse of its future direction.Īs Disney finalizes plans for managing guest demand and operating hours, one thing is clear: Journey of Water is a splash of ingenuity worth exploring, both in daylight and under the park's evening glow.
The attraction addresses a current gap in the Disney parks experience: the need for lower-intensity yet engaging experiences that don't require waiting hours in line or buying Lightning Lane passes. While it may not offer the in-depth educational experience of some of the park's original pavilions, it successfully blends entertainment, interactivity, and a touch of education in a way that will likely resonate with visitors of all ages. In summary, Journey of Water Inspired by Moana is a refreshing addition to EPCOT's evolving line-up of attractions. Concluding Thoughts: A Splash of Ingenuity Worth Exploring
