Plasma Cutting Team 2470's Frisbee Launcher

So why are we trying to go to Mars? It's because it's bigger, better, and bolder. Doing what nearly no other team can do, and defying all those who say it can't be done. That reward is a lot more than 9 points. - Mike [more]

Plasma Cutting Team 2470's Frisbee Launcher

Team 2470 - The Blitz Team starting cutting out their frisbee launcher with the school's new plasma cutter today. The launcher is assembled from 6 sheets of steel, you can see 5 of the sides in the below CAD drawing. We decided to add a sixth side today for stability. You can see a video of the plasma cutter in action here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUpf_stUnaw
