Detroit Wire Car Project

Before the Spring Break, I was working very hard on a Wire Car project. The Wire Car project is for the world first Wire Car Cruise in front of Detroit Institute of Art Musem.

This is my first time working with wire. I learned a lot about mechanics by doing this project and I started to get familiar with wire. Making the wire car requires lots of mechanic design, such as how to connect the door so that we can close and open it; how to balance the springs so that the car will bounce a little when it is being pushed.

Saddly, I had to travel to New York during Spring Break and was not able to attend the Wire Car Cruise. Anyway, I enjoyed every minute working on this project and it was a totaly new experience!
