My name is Andrew Lu, I am a determined electrical engineering student at San Jose State University. The blog I created is exclusively for the progress in Spartan Superway over summer. There is also more information about the project on my team blog at http://superwaywayside.blogspot.com/

Week 6
I was able to implement putting the new copper rail design onto the rail. Last week, it was to take down all the copper and drill holes and cut the copper rail to the shape needed for a better connection. This week is to actually put up the railings. This was a short week because of July 4th holiday. Putting up the copper railing is harder than expected. There are always problems with the railings; either the hole does not match up correctly or the collector shoes does not run smoothly. I plan on having a fourth of the right side of the rail finished each day. This would estimate to being finished on Thursday by next week.
