Last Week of March

Week of March 30, 2012
Update: Behind

Our group is pretty far behind on our project, we have not had time to get the pieces we need or materials. We need to go to a hobby lobby or academy and gather pieces. We also need to look at prices. And find a time when we can meet up and begin building.

Status: Nothing new

This week we came back from spring break and were still recovering from the week off. With Nathan out of town, and I busy with my family and volleyball we didn't really have time to build much of anything. Hopefully soon we will be able to get togther at Nathan's and build some!

Week of Spring Break

March 9, 2012
Status: Nathan will be gone, and it'll be up to me and Michael.


This upcoming week Nathan will be in Colorado for spring break. He is going with some friends. Michael and I will still be here in town, so we will have to find a day where we can meet up together and go over the project and see when we want to begin building or if we would like to start building during the week. Nothing very big is going to happen this week, and all we have done for this week so far is our updated powerpoint to let people know how our project is going.

Status: Finalized brainstorming


This week my group and I finished brainstorming and have come up with a solid plan. We were deciding if we really wanted to make the string claymore, because it doesn't shoot out very far and it wont shoot out actual paintballs. So we thought maybe we could make one from CO2 because then it could shoot out the paintballs and explode at a further distance. But we finally decided that we would stick with the string one and if we really weren't satisfied with how it turned out we could change over to the CO2 one.
