Abstract
The process of tapping rubber usually takes a long time and requires awkward positioning. In the long run, rubber tappers might experience backaches especially the elderlies. Rubber tapping machines have been created to facilitate the process. However, these machines require a high cost and are not affordable for small tappers who only have the job to support their families. These machines also steal the hands-on action people have when tapping rubber. Therefore, "wind-up rubber tapping machine" is a downgrade of the machine that requires lower cost and can help small tappers. The project intends to make the job of tapping rubber more comfortable and entertaining. Several research and observations were made to ensure the success for the specific mechanism to work in the project. The means to produce the items were also kept in mind to make sure the cost is low and not complicated. The project was also made sure to be long-lasting
