Sharp Container

My group and I used a metal can for this purpose. We focused on safety, ease of use, and recycling. We decided on an all metal design that would include a slit on the top. The slit will be used for breaking off used sharps without the need for a tool. We created an inner, metal tongue,   from a metal scrap and glued it inside the container just under the slit so that it would prevent sharps from falling out through the slit if the can is turned upside down. The container and its contents can be fully recycled with other metal without the need to reopen it or expose its contents. It was a joyful teamwork!
