Official:

Today, we met at Brian's house and discussed materials we might use. We looked at some of the things Bart (Brian's dad, not our advisor) has and he told us what kinds of things he would be willing to teach us how to use, like his silver solder equipment. We also briefed on the last two designns, cylynder wheels and flipper. We discussed the inchworm a lot and many of us are warming up to it. We are thinking about using an automated control circut for the clamping sequence.

Personal:

I felt like we didn't get much done but maybe that's because of the pressure Bart is putting on us. There was very little focus and some members of the team rarely payed serious attention. The loss of focus was either going off on worthless tangents, arguing, or in some cases, rough housing or p|aying.
