Design #2

Today is November 29, 2011. And David and I are so close to finishing our car! We did major improvements to our car. We continued our idea with the CDs as wheels. To make them stay straight we pocked holes in bottle caps with an awl. We put them on to the dowels that are our "Axels" and sandwiched our wheels in between them. At first we couldn't get the caps to go on the way we wanted and it didn't roll as well as it should have. Then we reversed the whole with the awl and made a perfect fit! Unfortunaly, our wheels didn't work to well, so David is going to problem solve this week. Then came the last problem, the balloon. We had a balloon, but we couldn't make it stay on the car without the CDs being pushed by it. We tried an extended platform for the balloon to lay on, but it wasn't enough. David and I are hoping to get together this weekend and finish the car and take some pictures!
