Days 2 and 3

The TechTigers have been hard at work the past few days. Upon narrowing possible design choices down to three, we have been creating prototypes, designing real versions in Autodesk Inventor, and modifying said designs based on new issues that we learn during this experimental phase.


John works on perfecting a part in Inventor.


A design team conference with Mr. Ellich.


Britnie preparing the pneumatics for prototype testing.


Sebastian (alumni and mentor) testing the reach of a prototype arm.

The marketing team has also been busy, preparing various publications about our team, as well as organizing in school fundraisers. One such being the schoolwide Pie Day, where for a price, students could pie select teachers [who volunteered, don't worry] to help raise money for our team. Another one of their projects is to design this year's crate, for which they have been determining designs for a while now. Here you can see them sketching the team member's names onto the crate.



Things are definately moving along for team 1251.

Time Left: 5 weeks, 5 days
