Photo 1 -4 – one of the requirements for the car is to carry a suit case 20x40x50 cm. For their first ever sheet metal work, freshmen Brooke and Jasmine are making one from very thin aluminum flashing and some angle pieces. Layout, mock-up, shearing, cutting, bending, flanging, dimpling, and riveting (both solid and pop rivets) are all new experiences involving lots of math applied. The suitcase will have just a small opening on one end to insert the 12 lbs steel plate to bring-up the minimum weight of the drivers to the required 150 lbs. It all will lock safely into place in the car.
