Progess:

Dispenser - 1st Prototype: first prototype can hold the just 2 chocolates for testing of the main idea. This model is just spun by hand. For the next model we will need to attach the motor, add a bit more height to the sides, and we'll remove some of the area underneath the chocolates to make it easier for the chocolate to fall.

Dispenser - 2nd Prototype: second prototype can hold the 3 chocolates for testing. It has a motor attached, but some difficulty is there with the spinner being too weak and hitting the screw heads.

After reprinting the spinner, but thicker for strength, we tested as shown, and it works!
