Additional Projects
Automata Box
Designed and built an automata box for an Introduction to Engineering Design project, using mechanical motion to create a repeating movement. Modeled the entire assembly in Fusion 360, including both snail and disc cams.
Power Box
Designed and built a 12V power box incorporating speakers and a standard 120V electrical outlet. Combined mechanical construction with electrical components to create a functional portable system.
Go-Kart
Built a functioning go-kart using components from a repurposed children's ride-on vehicle. Adapted existing parts and assembled them into a working mechanical system.
Electromagnet
Collaborated with a team to build a high-performance electromagnet using a repurposed microwave transformer. Applied principles of electromagnetism, electrical systems, and hands-on fabrication.
Wooden Glider
Collaborated with a team to design and build a wooden glider. Used AERY software to evaluate design options and select an appropriate glider configuration.
