Week 6 In class Progress


Today we went cracking on fitting the cylindrical cardboard tube through the triangular support in the frame. Making a hole in the side of the triangular support wasn't as easy as it originally seemed because we couldn't just draw a  circle in the side of the triangle and cut it out. It was more of an eclipse shape because it went in at an angle.


With both of them in, we could start work on the wheels which were 20 cm in radius since we were yet to get another cylindrical tube of a smaller radius than the one in the frame to act the bike fork.We stuck 6 circular pieces of cardboard to make on tire. Additionally, we intend to make the triangular frame stronger by adding triangular slabs of paper-mache mold at intermittent positions within the frame.
