Week 11

The project was a partial success. The stilts work but they're very difficult to cope with. WE plan on adding boots and securing our feet in better to improve this. Other than that pretty much everything turned out as it was planned.

Collin is finishing his set of boots. He has made them out of steel and has welded everything so he doesn't need the supports that Jimmy does with his aluminum.

We finished our project during week 11. We have challenged ourselves to build a trebuchet that fires 700+ feet within a week. This is not for a grade as far as we know but its still in progress.
