The Whipped Cream has been released. (Gold 2 Michael Muller)

Unfortunately our idea about slamming away at a bag full of cream was not going to work, as previous groups had tried it, and they eventually failed miserably, left with a spoiled bag of cream. Fortunately we had the time to change our efforts into a new machine that would excrete the cream more efficiently and quicker. The idea was very similar to the first idea we had, which was to pull the nozzle to allow the cream to flow out effortlessly. We changed the line that was connected to the motor into duct tape, which held more stable than the previous string that we had connected the pieces with. Next instead of just relying on the pieces to hold the bottle that held the cream in place, we added some extra resistance to the pull of the motor with duct tape. After we were finished the bottle didn't move at all when the motors pulled on the cream, and the cream was able to come out and efficiently stop at just the perfect amount on top.
