Your task
- You may choose to modify your chosen machine in any way, as long as it will not affect the way the machine operates, for example, you would not put solar panels on the front of a harvester, as then the machine would not be able to harvest grains....
- Any modification you make, you must be able to explain why you have made it and how it will work.
- You will be marked on your ability to create a sustainable machine & your ability to explain your choices - you SHOULD NOT just add solar panels over the whole machine and say it is sustainable, instead, choose 2 or 3 modifications and place them carefully on the machine & explain why you have chosen them. This is how you will achieve high marks.
