Research:
- Fabrication for research model has continued in this meeting
o Materials still needed
§ ACQUIRED: Method of affixation for all boards (Plexiglas and wooden) – nuts and bolts graciously provided by Daniel’s dad
§ Lubricant (something which wood will not absorb: Possible candidates include beeswax (or wax in general) and silicone oil, need to make sure that none will leak out
§ Springs: Pen springs may be ideal
o PROGRESS: Cut rest of wood body parts, affixed main body.
§ Interior is yet to be hollowed, yet moving parts (representing the nubs and teeth) have been acquired
Core Values:
- Core Values presentation work has begun
- Core Values board work has begun (pictures)
o Hexaflexagons had originally been for core values, but we remembered that there was a specific format to follow.
- Brief discussion on unique team representation for board inclusion
o “Inclusion” is one of the five sections required for the core values board
