My Tasks

Take a picture of our turbine parts.

Edit video of a jet-engine turbine for a helicopter

Start brainstorming for the presentation.

Progress

Photo:

The photo of the existing parts is shown to the right.

Video:

Video(s) were delivered later than planned, they have not been edited yet.

Brainstorm:

No progress made on the brainstorming process of the presentation. (Need to discuss project and direction with team members.)

Caleb Mitchell found a video of a finished and functional version of the same Thingiverse Turbine set, which could be used in the presentation to show what the finished product looks like.

Proposed Next Steps


 * Putting together the video
 * Making headway on the presentation
 * Spend time repairing or printing off copies of the existing parts. (due to complaint about the quality of the parts)

My Tasks

Find the adapter part for the air compressor on Amazon

Edit the Video(s)

Work on the presentation

Progress

Adapter part:

Measured the diameter of the pieces and found that they were a quarter inch (1/4in.) in diameter. Found a link on amazon for a quarter inch adapter.

Video:

Could not edit videos, but wrote down the times to use for the video. When they get edited, it should take a fairly small amount of time.

Presentation:

Unfortunately, no progress was made with presentation.

Proposed Next Steps


 * Edit videos
 * Begin presentation
 * Print remaining parts of Turbine
 * Talk to professor to get adaptor part ordered
 * Consult teammates on what we should power with the turbine model.
