So close!


...so very, very far.

Semester is coming to a close once again. This semester was actually pretty fun. I only had one really bad test (so far). One test to go, and three projects to do.

GC 350 Project:

This is a very fun class overall, and the project is no exception. My project consists of 20 individual types of part that are collectively assembled into a grinder vise. Like GC 120, this class uses Solidworks. The focus is getting tolerances right.

Deliverables:
- 20 solid models of parts.
- 1 part assembly (one of the parts is compound)
- 1 model assembly
- Technical drawings (from Solidworks) of each non-standard part
- Hand sketches of each part, and of the overall assembly. Can't use straightedge or protractor/compass.
- Technical drawing of overall assembly.


ENG 331 Project:

This class isn't bad. Lot of writing involved (I wonder why...?). Project is to create a ~10pg proposal on something. I chose a project from Sony Ericsson. Easier to write if I've already done it >_< :P. Really there's only one *deliverable* here -- the proposal itself. With front and back matter, my proposal is 17 pages long. Yay.


ST 370 Project:

Heh. We're going to test the speed of ice melting in various substances at various temperatures. We had to think of something >_>.


AND THEN IT'S FINALS!

GC 350 Final Worry Level (of 10): 6.5
ST 370 FWL: 8
CSC 230 FWL: 7

I'm really not that worried about GC. I'm pretty sure I'll do ok on that final. CSC final should be relatively simple. The ST final I need to do relatively well on to get an A...

Meh.

See you later.
