Week #12 & #13

This week, we have freshly laser cut materials for our second prototype and now our plan is to assemble everything. We created this prototype to show how they could interlock and connect with each other similarly to how puzzle pieces connect. Now, the team understands the best route of connecting the columns together, This was an important process to go through so we do not run into any complications if we were to work on the metal sheets on our own.

Later this week the team met up with Scott Bryant from Vander-Bend. Vander-Bend is a metal company which has worked with previous members of the Spartan Superway before. The team was accompanied by Dr Furman, Ron Swenson and another sub-team at Vander-Bend's location.

For the 13th week, the team continued to work on the bill of materials in preparation for the end of the semester prototype for the class.
