Setting up solar

We spent the majority of this week cleaning up the work area and getting the solar car prepared for the visitors on Friday.  All we were able to get done on SK2 was the addition of the back wheel.

Although we did nor make much progress on SK2, we were able to learn how to assemble the existing solar car by attaching the hood to the body of the car with zip ties.  We also cleaned the individual cells so that they could absorb more energy.
Kirsten cleans a layer of Texas dust from the solar cells.

Jason secures the top of the car to the bottom with a zip tie while everyone watches.
