Projects

Building a computer

My project was building a computer. I got the pieces from our advisor who has a bunch of old computers and I had to buy the hard drive. I looked up directions online about how to build a computer and emailed computer repair shops to see if they would help me. And I took pictures at each step so you can see how it went together, and now I can use it to play games on and stuff.

My project was to use a kit to make a robot that could sweep off a table top. It worked pretty well.
