Autodesk software

AutoCAD on Mac

Inventor on windows 8
I now have a student license at Autodesk because my school uses their products. I downloaded AutoCAD on my mac partition, and i downloaded Inventor on my Windows partition. (Inventor is the software we use at school.)

Dual boot

Is it a Mac....
Or is it a windows 8 pc?

With my new computer I can dual boot between Mac and Windows 8. I swear, It's totally awesome when you want to run windows only programs because THEY ACTUALLY WORK! That being said, here's some pictures up overhead.

I got a MacBook Pro!



Now, I got it over a month ago, but I decided to make a blog post only now. Here's the story on how I got it: This may, my dad got a free netbook/tablet convertible from his work because he worked on the intel atom, so he gave it to me. It didn't really meet my computing needs, so I traded it off for my grandma's 13 inch macbook pro when i went to India this summer. It's an early 2011 model and it works WAY better than the netbook. That being said, here it is.

Bottom of my new computer
It's opened up

Now it's closed

squirrel model plane

This is the model plane i made with balsa wood, tissue paper, toothpicks, a rubber band and a propeller. I have to give the credit to Darcy Whyte for providing the design & instructions. It flies great and lasts for a long time. search squirrel model plane and go to the rubber-pwer website to make it. All dimensions are in inches. Sorry my posts are getting gayer and gayer, i am having less time to do this.

meat tray glider

This is my foam tray glider. i made this out of foam meat trays from the grocery store (go to the meat department of the store and ask for a couple of trays, if you tell it is for a science project, they will give you a few. You need 2.), Hot glue (low temp, hi temp will melt the foam. I have a dual temp gun, so i can use hi and low when i need them.),cardboard, a bamboo skewer, a hammer and optional: a foam plate, a stick and a rubber band.

popsicle stick chain reaction

This is the chain reaction
i made. It is 2 feet long and made out of 30 popsicle sticks.  My inspiration comes from that guy on america's got talent, Tim Fort. to trigger the chain reaction you pull out any stick, and the elastic force of the sticks blows the sticks apart. This could go on forever if you are good enough, but i just stopped there.
My record is 12 feet.(This uses no adhesive. The only thing required is popsicle sticks and 2 hands:) Video footage above.
