10/26/2016 Blog #8

Hi,
this week I drew the design that I sent to Kearny Foundry and requested a quote. I was trying to do Finite Element Analysis (FEA) on the track but it would not work since the entire loop was created as an assembly and our SolidWorks did not support that so I simply redrew the loop as one part to get an FEA for it. I also worked on the PowerPoint for Presentation #2 and created a spreadsheet to tabulate our inventory and things we might need. Afterward, I searched for several sites that would sell ALU 6061 and found that Eric's recommended company, Coast Aluminum, was the cheapest.
