This past week, we looked into materials, researched more,
constructed a paper mock up of a Landing Craft Tank (LCT) and finalized our
location. We ran into some issues figuring out what would represent the LCT.
Kim found a paper model of an LCT online. We then cut out the pieces and put Kim’s
savvy intuitive construction skills to work attempting to recreate the LCT
based on images of the finalized LCT.
Location wise we chose someone near the KAW Point, because
of the current monument that is there for Lewis + Clark. KAW Point is where the
LCTs used to be placed in the water to be sent down the river. The Darby Steel
Corporation’s property used to be near KAW Point, with its launching site at
KAW Point. We wanted to stay close to KAW Point as our main focus is historical
+ educational.
Assistant Professor told us to think more about construction
time + prices for our final monument construction. So, this weekend we will be
thinking more about what would be the most efficient way to create our final
product. We also need to buy more materials to recreate the area and
experience.
