Problem Statement
Build a working fin ray out of material found around the house.

Work flow
Cut the straw into four different lengths. Thread string through each side of the straws. Before and after each straw, tie a knot to prevent the straw from sliding up and down the string. Hold the top straw and tilt it back and forth letting gravity move the fin ray back and forth.

Test and analysis procedures (hardware vs. software, acceptance vs. qualification)
The fin ray moves as expected. The procedures need to be fine tuned with measurements and retested.

Quality and safety assurance
A fin ray has been build but it is not sturdy enough to use in a fin ray project with other components. It is believed that the fin ray would collapse under any kind of pressure.
