Concentrate!





This week was another round of exams making life more difficult than usual, but all in all I think everything went pretty well.  I aced my Differential Equations exam and feel fairly confident about my Calc 3 and Physics exams as well.  In regard to my project, I got to use a new piece of equipment called a shearer.  Basically it cuts large sheets of metal into smaller ones.  The sheets of metal cut will make the parabola of our concentrator.  There are a few shots of the concentrator below with no sheet metal on it, as well as a piece of equipment called "Chicago".  Chicago is the shearer that cut our sheet metal like a hot knife on butter.
