Even though we began the rough draft of our proposal, our group still needs to think “short-term” rather than the “long-term” that Mr. Blake described in his Question and Answer session after we introduced our proposal. Our cement idea was considered a bit on the drastic side, so we are deciding between a plastic and wood bench and table. Additionally, instead of hiring others to do the job for us, Mr. Blake proposed that we build it ourselves to add a stronger physics component. The only problem with building it out of plastic is that it will be hard to construct it out of the plastic. We would maybe build it out of wood; however, the problem is the deterioration and the fear of the wood being warped from the rain. Even though these things will be problems, our basic objective is to get a prototype out into the wild.
