Hi - Designing an automaton is a creative engineering activity and one you would need to tinker with to get it working. The activity helps explain how the mechanism is created.

There are two videos associated with the activity. If you haven't seen this one yet, this may help as it is designed to help you think through creating your own automaton: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/video?id=695
