Collaborative CAD

You woke up late today (0845) as you forgot to set an alarm. You then quickly rushed over to Travis's house to carpool down to Baxter. On the way you bough a couple resistors and a voltage step-down so that you could run the BeagleBone off the batteries. You also stopped at a hardware store to buy 6-32 bolts, but they didn't have any.

At Baxter you and Liam went and helped Mr. Amory figure out how to cut out the main thruster container. This took a couple hours, from about 0945 to 1200, as the MasterCam software for SolidWorks was acting up a little bit.

After that you went to lunch with Mr. Amory, Josef, Liam, and Travis at Portland Pie Company. Upon returning you quickly finished the main thruster CAD model.

You then went down stairs and helped Travis to glue the small thrusters together in to the main body of the submersible. The four of you then went back to Freeport and went to frisbee (except for Travis). Frisbee went better than yesterday but was still a bit more relaxed than you would have liked.

You then went to the dinner that Ethan W. and Naomi were putting on for their senior project. The food was quite good and it was a nine course meal.
