Well, not really a trophy. Petra just asked for the equipment to build it and bugged me until I gave the go ahead. When she finished it we created a mounting plate with a little placard to honor JVN's design, Mark Leon's "do the math, save the world" mantra, and Petra's effort. We will move forward using this to teach gear reduction calculations and gear theory to team members and to those who take our Engineering Design classes at LM.
