Make a Resistor

Make a resistor!

pencil
multimeter
paper

Draw a line that is dark.
The more thin/thick and the more long/short will vary the resistance.
For instance a line that is 4cm long and 5mm thick would be 0.10M ohms.

check the resistance by putting the tips on each end.

Your done!
Your very own first resistor!
Write under it(make sure it doesn't touch the line!)
the ohms.
you can make lots of line by making it like mine and then you can a pot(potentiometer)!
be sure to check my instructables as well!
Blurry photos as well!
