Daniel and I have been working on solid works unit 4, this is one of the drawings we did.
We have continued into solidworks unit 4, we had some issues with the loft tool but we overcame the struggle.

We have begun watching unit 4 videos and I have started one of the models.

We finally finished the last assembly, we most likely will start on unit 4 but we will ask Mr.martin if he has anything else in plan.

Weve gotten pretty far, only about 10 steps to go till were done


Today Mr.Martin asked us to log onto every computer and find out if any of the computers were missing a program called "Testnav" and to mark them with blue masking tape.

Sadly we did not finish our last assembly. We plan on completing it after spring break.

Connor and i have completed the quiz for unit 3. We found that the quiz was no match for our solidworks skills.
Daniel and I started working on the robot, this is as far that I've gotten. Daniel is just one step ahead of me so i have to catch up to him.

We just finished building the lego car in solid works after about a week.
This week well be focusing on building the lego NXT REM robot.

Friday, March 7, 2014

I have finally completed the lego car. I must ask Mr.Martin what my assignment is next week.

I have been gone for 4 days because I had to go to Orlando to visit some family members. I will resume building the lego car this week in hopes to finish building it by this week.

Today i was having issues with being able to reload my car into solid works. I believe i have resolved this issue.

Friday, February 21, 2014

I've started building the 4th assembly in unit 3 this week, I have faced a couple challenges but other than that the car is looking like its supposed to.

Tuesday, February 18, 2014

My goal this week is to complete the Lego car drawing. The drawing comes with a 75 page powerpoint for instructions so this might be a challenge. 

Friday, February 14, 2014

I've completed the first 3 models for unit. I can't wait to start the fourth.

Friday, February 7, 2014

I most likely will start unit 3 next week after I completed my first hands on task. My first task is to measure the old frame for the solar panels and sketch it in solid works to determine the weight and estimate the weight of the new frame.

Monday, February 3, 2014

My goals for this week are to get better at unit 2 and possibly start unit 3. I'm definitely
not proficient at unit 2 so it might take some practice.

Friday, January 31, 2014

I spent some time this week salvaging old solar panels, but i did get around to watching the majority of the unit 2 SolidWorks videos. Today i started converting unit 1's models into drawings.

Monday, January 27, 2014

My goals for this week is to fully understand SolidWorks unit 2 concepts and be able to complete the majority of the drawings.

I've started doing some of the drawings and, already finished the last drawing for unit one.

Tuesday, January 21, 2014

I plan on retrying the assembly this week but I decided that it would be best to continue watching the videos so i can do it properly. 

Friday, January 17, 2014

The SPHS engineering website has been fixed so I have been able to watch the videos in order. I started the crank assembly
in unit 3 and almost finished it.

Monday, January 13, 2014

We started watching solid works videos and i started to play around with it. Solid works is kinda hard to use because the controls are slighlty different.

It's after winter break and Mr.Martin gives us a run down of last quarter an what he expects of us this quarter.
