Before the end of the fall semester, we spoke with Mike Steeil about what materials and supplies we needed to transfer over from the Armstrong lab to the STEM building as Armstrong hall will be closed for renovations. Over winter break, the team discussed the plan for the spring semester and more specifically about the construction of the canoe. We compiled a list of what we already have and what we needed to order. We needed to order a bag of type I cement, elemix, carnauba wax, fiberglass mesh, and other miscellaneous supplies to start construction. Insulation foam was also orderd to be fitted into the ends of the canoe for flotation. The materials were ordered to the Ewing Home Depot for pick-up. While the team waited for mold to be delivered, we began practicing our final mix design in the mixing bowl to ensure the right proportions.
