Makerspace at KSU Tuscarawas: Balloon Arch

Page that describes the Makerspace project, equipment and goals.

How we did it

This fantastic balloon arch was created using PVC pipe. Attaching several pieces together to create a bendable arch. 

Using Tinkercad, students designed a clip that would allow them to clip the balloon ends. This eliminated the need to tie each balloon. 

Using a drill holes were drilled into the PVC pipe to fit the 3D printed clips. The clips held the balloons and the other end fit into the predrilled holes making for an easy to assemble balloon arch.
