Hi! It's Karrie from formerly Vertabend. As my teammate Jordan put it in her fabulous pun, we've switched spines. Get it? From spinal cords to the spines of books?

For one thing, using Inventor on a laptop computer was much harder than using a mouse and desktop. I don’t think there’s... Continue Reading →
Today in class was a workday and as of last class our materials have already been ordered. Currently the biomed members have started the final presentation slideshow, and the engineering members have still been working on our 3D model. Sofia has been working on google sketch up, and I have been working on auto CAD.... Continue Reading →
JetSet is hard at work on- well basically everything. We had finished our design proposal and had a design that we were all confident in until we started looking at materials. Erin drafted up a 3D model of our original design that looked something like this: We think it looks great (even though it is... Continue Reading →
