Friday May 22nd

This week the seniors finished their finals and all the work that need to be finished. Also Jaret and Jack (and every one that helped) finished the wood orginizer and we loaded it up with materials like wood, metal, and plastics.

Monday May 18th

Took everything off our wood organizer we need to have better wheels on it the old ones where to small so  it didn't roll as well as it should of so my team is working on it  

Friday May 15

Finally Finished the shelfs on the wood organizer my team also put the sides on buckets that will hold the wood in place 

Sanding down the sides that will hold the wood vertically this part has to be exact because it won't match up with the connecting sides and also the shelf  

Here's another close up picture of the sides he's sanding down as you can see it lines up precisely with the connecting half 

 Surprise today we have to mount a Vice grip/Annville to the wood organizer this will be fun because we are doubling up on the wood in between to make it super stronger 

Completed picture of our new Vice  grip Attachment super sturdy bigger wood four washers on each screw two top two bottom

Mondays removal so today we have to take the  pedal from PJs bike off this should be very interesting due to the fact he's been Trying to take the pedal off for 7 days I got the pedal off simply by useing the other side it was a little tight but I had help from the crew to hole the bike down

Monday March 16

Started last week Wednesday we started out Dissecting are ballista  ..we noticed it had a lot of problems our old design had a lot of cracks  we took care of all minor problems doubled up the wood add a new rope

On this side we added metal sheets for the rope to be turned on so it can't split the wood anymore also added deeper Ridges in the wood so it would shoot farther

Monday March 9th

Cleaning everything out today so we can have a good clean week  we made a huge mess while building our wooden ballista  and now we are going through matching up all of our tools correctly & getting out all the sawdust 

Wednesday the 4th

Finally finished and we're getting ready to fire it it took us 2 week about but we finally finished it & we all feel accomplished wth your ballista 

February Friday 27th

The Big machine is done and we're getting ready to fire it but first right now duck tape is the only accessorie we are using to guide the ball through the tunnel smoothly we also tighten the rope  A lot of tension is on the rope so much tension we split the wood in 4 spots 

Jermie is making the holder for the ball it launches the ball through the tunnel smoothly while peter and jack Make side rails to guild the chuck through 

This is the split wood under all the tension it's split into 4 spots
