"The plan was to write a total of twenty-five essays, the work divided evenly among the three men

In the end, they wrote eighty-five essays in the span of six months

John Jay got sick after writing five

James Madison wrote twenty-nine

Hamilton wrote the other fifty-one" - this but brandon is Hamilton

First we came Up with the Idea of a disintegrating bandolier for our projectile launcher, then modeled and 3D printed it. this is the MK2

We created a projectile to fit in the bandolier v1 drooped so we made v2

We had the Idea of using a flywheel system to throw the projectiles so we built one

We modelled a gear loader to move the projectiles into position for it to fire

Our flywheel motors broke and that was a huge setback because then we had to make a slow to fast gearbox so that one strong motor could spin two wheels

We also made and added code to the robot so that it could drive

We ran out of time and the gearbox print failed so we made makeshift versions
