Week 10 – Cameron Flores

This was the last week of the internship. First official research experience. I aim to end it on a high note.

Monday 29JUL2024:

Monday was spent hoping to get the final poster done on time to submit after the revisions my mentor had asked me to take care of. I ran more wire tests in the mean time. I was able to finish it and turn it in by the end of the day, thankfully.

Tuesday 30JUL2024:

Tuesday was significantly less worrying now that I had turned in the poster. I fumbled on the elevator pitch, but I needed to rework it anyway. So not too bad overall.

Wednesday 31JUL2024:

With the poster out of the way, I was able to focus solely on wire cutting. Testing more extreme parameters and making a batch of wires with the old parameters.

Thursday 01AUG2024:

Thursday I had cleaned the tests from the day before and gave my results to my mentor, he approved for me to run the next batch with these new parameters. While they were being cut, I asked for training on a resin 3d printer and more info on a new filament 3d printer.

Friday 02AUG2024:

Today is the day. Hopefully things go well.

 

This is the end of this chapter. Signing off!
