November 4, 2022: Poetry Project
This week we collabed with the AP lit students to design a locker "shadowbox" that represents a poet of their choosing. I am working with the best, Samantha! We made models in inventor and AutoCAD + laser cut pieces.

October 28, 2022: Study Model
This week we did more inventor review and made our study models of our chair. I focused on interlocking parts and dimensions for my model. Here are some pictures!

October 21, 2022: Inventor Practice
October 14, 2022: Inventor Review
October 7, 2022: Inventor Review + BOXES!
We started the week be focusing on Solid Professor review. We learned constraints and finally figured to how to do patterns along a curve! Then, we got very distracted on Thursday and Friday and spent both of those days build towers, tunnels, and chairs with computer boxes. Pictures are included below!

September 23, 2022: Solid Professor
This week, we focused on reviewing for the Inventor Certification exam through Solid Professor. Solid Professor is annoying!!! We struggled a lot, but we got through one of the practice exams. This just mean there is a lot of review to do before November 11th!
Also, on Friday we review ergonomics which was so interesting. Definitely something to consider when constructing my chair!

September 16, 2022: Chair Project Inspo
This week, I got to start exploring the famous CHAIR PROJECT! This year, we plan to enter the Fresh Wood competition which means we have some restrictions (we may only use 1 sheet of plywood!). I started some research and preliminary sketching this week.
My Ideas:

September 9, 2022: Reverse Engineering Update
I made some adjustments to my assemble and I made my final drawing this week!

September 2, 2022: Reverse Engineering Update
So I may have forgotten how annoyingly difficult assemblies are. That being said, I figured it out (with the help of Ms. Bolen of course) and I also made a few more parts this week. Next week, I'll add a couple more small details and then I will be done! Stay tuned! :)

August 25, 2022: Reverse Engineering Update
Here is my current progress! I have complete 4 out of the 6-8 pieces of my Bop It project! Below are some pictures of the Spin It part, Twist It Part, Pull It Part and Flick It part.

August 15-19, 2022: Reverse Engineering Project
This week we started our review of inventory with our reverse engineering project. I chose to model a toy called Bop It because it is very unique in geometry and design. This will definitely be a challenge for me, but I am excited to begin modeling. Below is a picture of the object assembled as well as it in parts. Today and next week, I will begin modeling the parts in inventor!

August 10-12, 2022: Review
For these classes, we reviewed how to CAD as well as the laser cutter and CNC. I decided to do the Avengers symbol for both my keychain and sign. You can see the finished products below.

August 9, 2022: Egg Drop Competition!
Today we teste our egg drop parachute design! Surprisingly, it was a success and our egg, George, did not crack. Soon, we will drop our mechanism out of Mr. Furstein's window to see if it survives an even larger drop!

August 1-8, 2022: Egg Drop Prep
In our first week of class, I worked with Lauwenda to create a mechanism that would survive a 15 foot drop with an egg. We decided on a triangular design to hopefully absorb the force on impact. Below are some pictures and documents of what we worked on.
