WEEK 17

Monday
Today i added the truss structure to the title block and made sure it had proper dimensions and was fit to the screen. I named all my title blocks based on what part of the crane they were.

Tuesday

Was not here

Wednesday
Today we started to make our crane out of the popsicle sticks. I worked on making the base of the crane using full popsicle stick lengths. I didnt have to do any cutting.

Thursday
Today i learned how to make a proper I-beam. We made roughly 15 I-beams to get us started. We continued to cut pieces to get them the appropriate size to build the crane.

Friday
Today we started making three boxes for the bottom of the crane. We added the four corners and the trusses that connect them. We used carpenting glue to strengthen it as much as possible
