What I did 10/24 - 10/26

10/24
We talked about final presentations today. People seemed to like my idea of the Hermes Hat (which has now become a top hat. Now I just need to find links to build this device.

10/26
Me and my group led a discussion of the reading (see previous posts). I think that turned out well. I was rather proud of my discussion questions. Hope the other groups do just as good a job as us.

Also did some research for the Hermes Hat:

But before I order anything I will go to the hobby store just up the road on 9 mile and see if they have a motor.
