====Summary====                   
{{$demo.summary}}



====Procedure====  
  - Cut a 700 mL plastic bottle into two parts as shown in the guide.  
  - In the bottom section, make a side hole and several holes at the base.  
  - Cut a cardboard disc to fit tightly inside the bottle bottom. In the center, cut a square opening to mount the gearless motor.  
  - Cut three triangular openings in the disc for airflow.  
  - Attach a propeller to the motor shaft, then secure the motor into the square opening of the cardboard disc.  
  - Insert this motor-propeller setup into the bottle bottom section.  
  - Connect the motor to a power source (such as a power bank) using a motor control element.  
  - Cover the open end of the bottle with a piece of open-weave bandage to act as a filter net.  
  - Reattach the top section of the bottle over the setup.  
  - Secure the power bank to the outside of the bottle with double-sided tape.  
  - Turn on the circuit and test by placing the bottle’s opening near small pieces of paper. The suction should collect the debris.

====Variations====
  * Replace the bandage with different types of fabric (cloth, silk, or mesh) and compare performance.  
  * Try bottles of different sizes for stronger or weaker suction.  
  * Use different propeller designs to test efficiency.  
  * Add a switch to control the motor more easily.



====Safety Precautions====
  * Use scissors and cutters carefully when cutting the bottle and cardboard.  
  * Ensure wires are properly insulated to prevent short circuits.  
  * Do not use the vacuum for liquids or fine dust.  
  * Supervise children during construction and use.




====Questions to Consider====
  * What happens if you use an opaque fabric (like silk) instead of a net bandage?  
  * How does the propeller create suction inside the bottle?  
  * Why are holes needed at the base of the bottle?  
  * How does this model compare to a commercial vacuum cleaner in design and function?  
  * What improvements could make this design stronger or more efficient?
