Daily Journal

Wednesday was spent fulfilling various side tasks. A majority of us travelled to Itasca Community College to work on three dimensional modeling and a recycling project, while a few stayed behind to represent the students in an industry meeting. Overall, it was a very productive day. We designed and built three different recycling containers made from a corrugated plastic material manufactured locally by MDI. We have implemented them in our classroom and have plans to teach younger students the process of building them as a volunteer activity. The 3D modeling group learned some of the more complex tools and features of the Pro-Engineer program. We also received exciting news from the industry meeting. It looks as if there are several local industries and businesses with real life engineering opportunities for us; one of which could start within the next few weeks.
