RoboBoat

Sunday, July 21st, 2002. We just started planning work on the robotic boat, we also made a few attempts at homemade propellers. Here are a few photos:

Testing the boat in my hot tub

Let's see how hard we can push on this thing...

Tevis watches intently as the boat does NOTHING!

Oohh! What's that! Wow, a blade of grass! Much more interesting that this hunk of foam!

The underside flotation

Our workbench for propellers

Cut that seltzer bottle!

Dang it! This isn't working at all!

Caught in the act of giving up...

Forget it! Let's just use some capsela propellers.
