What designs from your class did well?  Some designs did well were the ones that had a thick outer layer, or parashoots to slow the fall.

Based on the achievements you earned, how would you redesign your solution to score better? Based on what i've learned i would make it lighter by: take out some of the fluffy cotton balls and don't double bowl it. Also use less duct tape sinse my project weighted 147.1g. I was thinking i could make it smaller in size by using something flat as a top instead of two bowls.
