Team: Vision Builders

Team Vision Builders drew complete diagrams of several potential designs.

This modified tricycle was their final choice.

Rory is in the process of laminating the wheels. The board and clamp method shown here has been widely used.

To join the paper tubes, holes were drilled near the ends and steel wire was used like lacing. The wire was then covered with tape.

Theophanie and Rory gather together completed components and some additional supplies.

The completed vehicle code name "Brown Bug". PVC pedals, like the ones shown here, have been used by several teams, but they need to be thoroughly tested for strength.
