Results and Things We'd do Differently

Propeller:


In addition to the printed propeller we screwed in a purchased brass hook that would be used to connect the propeller and rubber band.


Hull:


Still under construction

 

Things we would do differently:


Upon reflection, it may have been a good decision to check the machines to make sure they could actually be used to accomplish what we hoped to.  And then after the methods discussed previously had failed, we could have further simplified our design in order to utilize other methods of construction.  One such possibility would be using a laser cutter to make a plexiglass base and walls and then joining these together to make a hull.
