Today we were able to glue in the main pieces to our Optics Museum Project. We included the small plane mirror illusion box, and two mirrors. Originally, we wanted to create a concave mirror illusion, where the mirrors' reflections would seemingly project an image above; however, because the delivered concave mirrors were not deep enough, this was not an option. When we ordered the mirrors, we were not expecting for them to be reflective on both sides. This meant that we now had both concave and convex mirrors. We decided to use the surprise to our benefit. We mounted two mirrors on the sides of the box walls. The concave side facing outwards for one of the mirrors, and the convex side facing outwards for the other mirror. This new exhibit will demonstrate the difference between the two.

Because of multiple changes in our original project plan, we were required to redesign our orthographic and isometric sketches. Sketches of the new design will be featured in our Purchase List document in place of the old designs.

Our next class will be the last day to work on our projects before they are due. We have printed all of our 3D pieces, so it is likely that our next day will be mainly organizing all our material.
