Write problem/project Goal
To make an arch for the bridge.

My First Task
To create an arch.

Summary of actual work over first weekend
It was difficult to make the arch without knowing the dimensions of it.

Week1 Narrative
Tell a detailed story describing what you did for your team over the weekend.

My Second Task
Draw an arch on big piece of paper to draw where hangers should go.

Summary of actual work over second weekend
I wasn't able to draw an arch on a piece of paper because I didn't have the dimensions.

My Third task
My third task is to create some clamps for the end of the hangers so we can add tension when we attach the hangers.

Summary of actual work over third weekend
I was having trouble coming up with a different designs for the hanger strechter.

Week3 Narrative
I designed a stretcher for the hangers but still need to make them to see which will work better. I came up with using balsa wood to create the clamp because regular wood would break the spaghetti, when balsa wood would just form around it. Then I had to come up with something that would spread out the pressure or else the balsa wood would flatten out. I came up with either putting normal wood on the top and bottom or making the clamp out of normal wood but then lining the inside with balsa wood.

My Fourth task
I need to make these two different style of clamps--to stretch the hangers--and test out which will work better.

Summary of actual work over fourth weekend
