Draw Up A New Plan

Week of May 18, 2012
Status: Done, just new ideas

This week we were told to draw up a new idea of how we would want to make a claymore if it was sensor or motion dectector activated. We haven't done that yet. Hopefully over the weekend someone will have drawn one, which will probably be me and we will end up presenting next friday! A picture of the sketch will come.

Goodbye Seniors

Week of May 11, 2012
Status: Seniors gone
This week our class lost all our seniors, so all we did was watch them do their project presentations and we ended up just doing a powerpoint for ours. Also, this week we didn't build any, but Nathan added a "trip wire" (string) to help set off the claymore, and we can put small items inside the launch box and they go pretty far!

Close to the End

Week of May 4, 2012
Status: Finalizing


This week my group and I are finalizing the claymore. We are changing some of the feautres and adding string and putting propper things in the holder to launch paint. Hopefully it will work.


((I'm still working on putting pictures up... I need to email them from my phone to the computer and I've just been busy... Will be coming soon! Sorry!))

Up To Date

Week of April 27, 2012
Status: Finally Up To Date


This week is so relaxing, I am no longer stressing about making up blogs because I have all of them updated. My group and I have also been building for a week now, so we keep making small tweeks on the claymore (that aren't really even noticeable) and trying to make it better. I am working on the pictures being uploaded, I just have to send them from my phone to my email and I haven't done that yet. Hopefully next week the past 2 blogs, including this one, will have some pics to help you look and see our progress!

Started Building

Week of April 20, 2012
Status: Finally we have gotten all the parts and can begin building


This week will be much more eventful. We finally have gathered the parts (pictures to come) and have started creating our claymore! Sure it won't be a professional one and it will probably look nothing like what you would expect, but it'll be awesome!

Prom Weekend

Week of April 13, 2012
Status: Take a Break


This weekend is our prom so no one in our group will be able to do anything. All we did in class this week was discuss what time next week we would begin to put all the parts together to make the first claymore.

Finally Getting Parts

Week of April 6, 2012
Status: Got the parts


This week nathan is able to go out and gather the parts we need in order to make the claymore finally! I will have pictures up next week to show you some of our progress on building! Hopefully we will be able to get a video up too.
