Overview:
Fiddle is a fidgeting toy made out of random trash I found in the dry bin. It’s made out of some rubber bands, broken waste sticks and a mountain dew bottle.

Motivation behind doing this project:
I was very bored in the class and didn’t feel appropriate to leave. I couldn’t entertain myself by fiddling with things from my pouch. Thus came along, Fiddle. P.S: I was almost thrown out of the class because Fiddle made sound.

How to play?

Twist and open the cap. Support the cap at a 45 degree angle on the cut bottle’s collar. Rotate the cap until desired twist in the band. (The band connecting cap and the broken sticks) Pulling the cap at a distance. Release. The goal is to fit the cap on the groves of the bottle collar.
