Print Making

A clash between Art and Biochemistry produced The Print Making Project. The agenda is to do research on the three elements given. When the info is collected, make a sketch that resembles the info gathered. Then you have three sketches in front of you. Choose one and make a print out of it. Silver chemical symbol Ag from its Latin name Argentums. It is a transitional metal and has the highest electrical conductivity. That’s how I got the idea for my prints. I would make a print with lightning striking the metal. My first design was similar to the design of franklins experiment when he tied a key to a kite. I made a beautiful sketch although is would be hard to carve. So I made a simple but elegant sketch.

Making Biodiesel

    In our Advanced Engineering class, our teacher Mr. Van Kouwenberg had assigned us to make biodiesel. We had to draw up the blueprints, find materials, build the model, register for a patent on the design, and finally make the biodiesel using our design. We began building the biodiesel during November 2007. Mr. VK (Van Kouwenberg) split our class up into groups and assigned each group an area of the model to work on. My partner Mithun and I worked on the settling tanks. Cutting out the shape, molding the pieces to fit together, connecting the funnel to the bottom and such. Mithun and I did this for both for the large settling tanks and worked partially on the methanoic acid tank.

    We began this project so that cheaper, efficient, and cleaner fuel would be available to the world. This design would especially benifit South and Central America and developing countries.
