Puzzle Cube Challenge
The problem I had to solve was to help a company build a product from the leftover cubes so they wont be wasting money. The solution was to build a toy for the ages 3+. The given constraints of the problem was that the puzzle must be fabricated from 27 hard wood cubes. The puzzle must contain 5 puzzle pieces that are permanently attached. In order to solve the problem first i brain stormed on the shape of the 5 separate pieces. Then, I had to put the pieces together and color the design. Finally, I made the design of the package and the name of the product. What I really liked about the project was that we got to work in partners, and that it was a very hands on project. one thing that I would change about the project would be to change the size of the cubes like make them bigger. Finally, the most challenging thing that I had to do in this project was to have to cut all the cube sand put them together.

Disadvantage of solar panels
One of the major disadvantages of solar panels is that you can only use it half of the day. Another disadvantage is that each panel cost about $1000. Also weather can affect the efficacy of the solar cells.
