We will have pics made Wednesday 6th May, Beef. They are having their final semester presentation at 3 PM the 6th. I want to try to make a video of the prototype in operation.
They had not finished the master rod on this visit, so they could not actually run the setup. They are focusing on building a full sized operational unit that would work on a Dodge Sprinter.
They have limitations, no ability to do investment casting, or welding, so they have to machine individual components out of large pieces of steel, and it's very time consuming.
The meeting Friday was where all the senior groups show their projects. Most of them have background data and prior work to give them a head start. This prototype is basically from scratch, and was easily the most ambitious project of all the classes. Of course I may be a bit prejudiced in my judgement.
Are you interested in attending the meeting Beef?
regards
gary
