Week 14 Update

For this week I focused on gathering up all the materials that were going to be needed to start the building of the track. With the help of Patrick and his SUV, we were able to transport all of the wood needed as well as the third rail. We are very grateful for his help! Below are images of the materials as well as the components we have been able to make.

Week 13 Update

For this week, we focused on getting all the materials that would be needed to help us start building the track. We went to pick up some of the parts from Master Metal on Wednesday (5/1). We still need to pick up some wood in order to start building the track. All the screws and bolts needed were ordered and we were able to also find extra ones in the court house building. As of this week, we have finally started building. We have lost a lot of valuable building time due to the move this semester and we are very behind schedule. As of this moment, we predict that we won't be able to finish in time before the final presentation on May 10th.
