  2. EPICS Project Ryan Underwood Myles Goins Denny Nguyen

  3. Objective • Our objective was to build a bookshelf for Ms. Dal Ben that could hold her entire class set of novels.

  4. Final Product

  5. Guitar Rack Alex Gong, Ashley Bearden, Kevin Le, Drew Bridges

  6. Concept The concept of the guitar rack was to hold multiple guitars in an ordered fashion. We designed the rack to hold at least 20 guitars. While building this guitar rack we also learn about the values of teamwork and overcoming the difficulties that play a part in putting PVC pipes together. Fin.

  7. Ideas We discussed ideas such as a guitar rack made of PVC, a storage cabinet, made out of wood, or a guitar rack, made out of wood. After discussing these ideas, we came to a conclusion that the Guitar Rack made out of PVC would be the most practical, lightest, and most cost efficient solution to the storage problem the Band Room is dealing with.

  8. Supplies 1” PVC Pipe PVC Glue PVC Elbows PVC Tee’s Insulators Hot Glue 18 PVC Caps

  9. Construction Draw the guitar rack to match the specifications. Draw the guitar rack on CADD. Buy all the materials. Measure and cut the PVC pipe to length. Assemble all the pieces. Begin gluing the PVC to the elbows and the Tees, making sure we reconstruct in the same manner as first constructed. Repeat for the second guitar rack. Cut the insulators and attach using hot glue. Deliver to Band room. Be praised.

  39. EPICS Project: Beaker Backing Tyler Moore Brandon Perry Carlos Villasenor

  40. Project Overview • Our group made a wooden backing for two test beakers that Ms. Higgins uses for her labs. It provides a sturdy storage component to protect the beakers, as they are very fragile and expensive. During some labs, she will not be able to touch the beakers, so it also serves as a holder for the beakers to be presented safely.

  41. How it Helped • This project helped Ms. Higgins because it directly benefits her labs that she presents to her classes. It provides her with a backing for her beakers that make her labs more presentable and entertaining.
