1-29-2013


Hey everybody, it’s Matt here again.

This past week the whole team has been busy working on getting the flow bench together so we can begin the testing phase of our project. A little over a week ago Dan and I went to Home Depot and Lowes to solicit for donations that would help us complete our flow bench. Though we weren’t able to get 100% of the materials we needed donated, both companies were very generous with the donations they made. Home Depot donated Oak Hardwood plywood, and Lowes donated a gallon of Bar Topper which we’ll be using for a finish on the top of the work bench. This week we managed to cut out all of the plywood for the bench as well as get several coats of polyurethane onto the panels. Our first attempt at creating the bench top ended up having some issues, so Forest and Jon worked on setting up a new bench top and burning some new sponsor tiles. The flow bench should be coming to fruition fairly soon, so keep an eye on the blog, and I or one of the team members will be keeping all of our readers posted.
Remember to check out our web page, and our Picasa photo album to see what we’ve been up to!
