Fifth Day

We were able to build most of our prototype today and overall it is looking very nice. In the morning Jason and I went and bent the crossbar into the correct shape and then brought it back for painting. While I was gone the other group members worked on preparing the poles for painting and then began to pour the concrete. By the end of first block we had one bucket of concrete done and after break we were able to pour the second bucket of concrete. At this point we had done the most important parts of construction and moved onto the ball. Once that was done the concrete was set enough to test it and see if it would actually work. We then screwed the bolt in and did a quick test and we had great results. Then we disassembled the prototype and let the concrete set. We made up the rules to the game and next class we can build the sign and begin to paint the prototype.
