Day 12

Today was a very productive day for the TechTigers. The meeting took place first at school, mainly in the machine shop, with a good number of team members and mentors there, as well as Dave and Mendez who came down for the weekend. The major accomplishment today was the assembly of our prototype gearbox.

Mr. Ellich says, "Quality isn't great but workable. All that is needed is some fine tuning and I think we have a winner!"

Good job, 1251!
