Week 10 - LEE ORDER!!!

This week in AutoCAD our group has been brainstorming over building a ballista for warfare. The design has been thrown around, but is still in its early stages. The main issue at the moment is finding the right material for launching the tennis balls. A ballista offers more accuracy and quicker reloading time for ammunition.  As for now we've all decided on a name for our kingdom, The Order.

Week 9 - Gluing the Piping

This week in AutoCAD we've worked on the support structure for the piping, and gluing the pipes together. We have also added horizontal support struts in order to prevent the two beams from moving. The cement glue has also been added to help give the pipes a more sturdy characteristics.

Week 8 - Hands Across America

This week in AutoCAD, we did not use AutoCAD instead we laid down some concrete in the base of the hydroponic garden. I personally saw to it that the concrete was smoothed to perfection. After the smoothing process was completed then came the challenging hand imprinting procedure. This involved well timed hand laying techniques and even distributed pressure along the hand it self.

Week 7 - Making Progress

This week our group has been taking care of business, the triangular base for the hydroponic garden has been partially completed. The triangular base allows for a sturdy structure and optimal H2O flow of the PVC piping. The hydroponic garden super structure is aerodynamically designed and engineered for excellence. The PVC piping is custom built to allow for maxim plant watering.
