USU Rate My Course.
Hi Guys.
below is a link you may wish to use.
it gives you a voice to rate the six courses you are undertaking in the CAT Boatbuilding.
This is facility that the student USU sets up as an independent means for student voice.
http://www.usu.co.nz/rate-my-course/ratings/?programme=911140004
You'll need your student login to participate.
This is also separate from the in-house feedback questionnaires i send out in google forms to you all.

Jobs yet to do Wilson 8m
The items below are to give you a general overview of the jobs yet to do on the boat.

The list therefore is from your fist day back after the midterm break.
We do not have a 'work experience week' available, so return to Unitec will be the 24th October.
In general, the below jobs already have set to be done by certain students.
it is obvious that each of these topics and 'jobs to be done' are more complicated than the short description outlined here.
It is incumbent on each student to identify the more detailed events around each job and acknowledge the learning these jobs have promoted by writing it up. E.g. Blogs, portfolios, Collaborative google-docs, etc...
Deck/Cabins:
fairing of all foam cores fitted to date.
Insert edging pieces and manually fit..
Inner laminate for the side decks.
Cores vacuum bagged for the side decks.
Side deck foam cores faired.
Cabin top outer laminates. This includes extra laminates to produce a flange for the window rebates.

Trim accurate rebate window areas.
Temporary splashes (cradle) for the deck/cabin to sit in in the hotbox.
Removal of product from mould.
Placing in the hotbox for post curing.
Hull and interior:
Water tank area. hatches, Seacocks, water pipe run,
Head area doors, plinth, cabinet, fwd berth entrance trim, stiffener on fwd bulkhead.
cabinet top and basin.
Fuel tank fitted and held. Cabin sole glued in sheathed filled and faired.
Allowance for removable bottom of galley return piping etc...

Welcome back to Ogi and Dylan.
Adman should be back from the Barrier today...
The team has a goal that must be reached this week.
The inner laminate for the fwd cabin and the foam core must be done by Wednesday night.
Some of the team on the Hull can be spared to work with the Deck team to achieve this.
Inchie, Tiger, William and John however need to keep the Hull fit-out going.
John, water tank.
Tiger, Head area,
William, Companionway door,
Inchie (Yin) Engine box and locker. we have to place a transducer below this area now. Richard will supply.
The EDB430-1270 laminating glass is due to arrive this morning so there isn't any hold up.
Hoff and Lim have cut all the glass we had available for the foredeck lams. While Leon kept going with the foam pre-fitting.
Stephane, Ben, Dylan, Ogi and Leon are all available to get the foam finished.
The edges, where we have the rounded mould are to have the foam core kept back from the edge. We will secondary bond manually these pieces.
Ogi and Leon are underway getting the edge treatment for the fwd coaming windows foam core.
The substrate surface of the mould has some major contamination. This will need a carefull light sanding before we can wax the surface. Hoff has masked off the flange fwd of the screen area.
The inner laminate must be done today.
Lets keep the shop clean....

FRP and General boat repair resource site.
I've got a link here you might all gain knowledge from.
Think of this site in relation to the work youa re all doing with your boat construction projects and your FRP half model work.
http://www.atlcomposites.com.au/atl_composites/epoxy_products/west_system_brand/publications
There are many sites on the internet...it can be overwhelming.
But here is another one that Chris Lovegrove discovered, I like it.

Update. Wilson 8M
Just a little reminder from last Wednesdays end of day.
I was called away with a student that needed some updating on assessment event timeline info. I was only in the tutor resource room but...
Well this week we again have students arriving late for workshop sessions.
Some late...some no shows...one disabled, oh well, that's not good.
William is progressing on the companionway door and frames.
Ben is working on the sub sole hatch in the helm area.
Stephane is getting the helm station box finished.
John is looking at the fwd fresh water tankage area.
Yin is getting there with the engine box arrangement.
I think we may use some of the EDBM for taping around the engine box area before the boatcloth and filling/coving.
James has a broken hand from league in the weekend and has gone home.
Tiger is busy with the head cabinet and pan plinth. The cabinet door has been cut out and the bench top doublers are being considered.
The transducer for the Chart plotter speed log is going under the aft locker area and this is another job to add to Yins' list of jobs. He may need to share some of this workload with Tiger?
Lim, Leon, Hoff are sorting out the fwd cabin for glass cloths and waxing.
They have calculated that we need a further 21M x EDB430-1270 to cover all laminates to the end.
Richard is going to get the glass for them tomorrow morning, this is good.
The foam is nearly fully fitted and labelled for the forward areas..

HERE IS SUPERB FREE PROJECT TIMELINE MANAGEMENT TOOL
The link below takes you to a very good free online resource that will allow you to input as an individual, or as a member of a team, a timeline and resources chart. It is compatible with MS Project and Google docs etc...
It looks very promising. Download it and try it.
Perhaps try it in retrospectively analysis of your efforts and timing with either the Small Craft project or the Boat Construction Wilson 8M Project.
http://www.viewpath.com/
There is a series of videos to help familiarize yourselves with the format and tools within this program.
You don't need to download it onto your computer. it is another CLOUD computing system, just like Youtube or Picasa-Web.
