Project Description:
Students will be split into two teams and be randomly assigned a job position. Each team will be charged with engineering a replacement for a common, yet inefficient or poorly designed mechanical product. This year the teams will need to redesign and re-engineer a set of Crutches. Research will be conducted to find issues and possible solutions, Each student will design their own new idea and present to their group. Each team will have to decide on a design and build a full scale, working model of their new design. This model will then be tested and possibly redesigned to fix any issues. Experts will need to be contacted for first hand problems and solutions. Use of the woodshop and tools will be a necessary for building the apparatus, and a feasibility study will need to be done to see if this new design will be appropriate for consumer use, simplicity of construction and resale value.

Criteria: (what needs to be handed in)

 * Individual Designs(1 from each student)
 * Group/final design(1 from each group)
 * Final Project (1 from each group)
