Spectacular job, Guns - your students should be proud of what they've accomplished in such a short time. It really looks good.

The T shirt idea for the main crew seems to be going further than idol talk. I got a text message tonight with pictures of a t shirt design.
It needs work, but I was surprised they had at least gotten that far. |

WOW!
Amazing project. |

I can't remember if I posted in this thread or not (), but I've been following it since pg. 1, and just wanted to say this is really cool, and you and your students did a fantastic job on this. Hat's off to you, sir.

I thought this was a great thing since Day 1. Once I saw the rivets going on, I thought it was awesome. After I saw the detailing, paint, and weathering, I though it was Extremely Awesome. How it turned out is Beyond AWESOME!!!
I think this is the coolest project you've posted yet! So much detail, and at such a huge scale! I'm at a loss for words to describe how awesome the kids, sub, and teacher are!!! |

For people to see the subs top, not just the bottom, it has to be "diving". The planes are going to stay the way they are, and the torpedo is obviously not going any where since it carries the sensor. If it helps, we will hang our heads in shame for a few minutes. |

It's a Battle of the Atlantic action diorama showing the sometimes desperate measures required just to survive. The previous depth-charging has jammed the bow planes and the destroyer is coming in for another run. You can hear the ASDIC pings, can't you? The boat's commander is firing a "Hail Mary" torpedo down the destroyer's throat just as the crew piles into the bow compartment to get her deep before the next depth charges are dropped / launched. See? It all makes perfect sense now. |

The SM U-155 (formerly merchant submarine “Deutschland”) was a Type U-151 U-Kreuzer of the Kaiserliche Marine during World War I. Built at Flensburger Schiffbau, she was launched on 28 March 1916 as merchant submarine “Deutschland” Deutschland was a blockade-breaking German merchant submarine used during World War I. It was developed with private funds and operated by the North German Lloyd Line. She was one of the first of seven U-151 class U-boats built and one of only two used as unarmed cargo submarines.(Colorized by Edward Tambunan) https://www.faceb That seems like a huge submarine from what I recall of seeing WWI U-Boats. She was used to ship cargo from the United States to Imperial Germany until we entered the war. If you read her history, she made two trips as a commercial submarine before being taken over by the Imperial German Navy and armed. She could carry ~750 tons of cargo and had more than twice the displacement of a typical WW1 U-Boat. |

The online news feed guy came by yesterday and did a short story on the sub.
The local paper came by today and did a long interview with the kids. She is a former student, and has done some great pieces on our projects in the past. She is going to have a photographer come by for a large group photo when the submarine is in the air. She pressed me for a date on that, so I told her Thursday we would try hanging it next week. The custodian thinks it will work, as long as nothing comes up. Friday we should be able to get it all sealed up, and hopefully the robotics running. The following week, we should get a group photo of the "Christening". That's the plan, so updates will happen at that time. |

I never thought how disgusting and putrid random bits would become after a year. The Putrescine levels were off the charts, it was the most nasty, foul smelling ordeal I'd ever dealt with at that time. The dive planes are perfect. No need to change them. Everything is perfect about the sub! Just don't open that damn box! Call a sewer service to come do it for you, it smells less when they just suck it out instantly and put the lid back on. |

High school job. I can top that.... meat scrap trimmings from a butcher shop. Stored in 55 gallon drums out back, until the meat delivery truck could take them back for rendering.
One time in the summer (important detail) it didn't come for a week, and we had to empty it into the dumpster. I think it was 54 gallons maggots, to 1 gallon meat, by the point we emptied it. It was so, so, so vile. I had dry heaves, and another guy puked. |

On a sadder note.
Looks like our district will be loooking for a new Robotics/Computer Sciences/Programing teacher next year. Ours turned in her resignation this week. Her robotics team just won the Montana State title, and earned a trip to CA for super regionals. They've got a good shot at winning the WY title tomorrow in Casper. Pretty cool. It sucks that she is leaving. Not sure how the hell they will find someone with half of her qualifications to replace her. If anyone who had a background in that stuff wants to move to WY and teach at a great small H.S. of about 450 students and help build cool projects with me, send me a PM and I'll get you the application info. The retiring teacher did not have a teaching degree, she was a retired Microsoft President, so I think there is some leeway in the credentials. |

Regulations required that I autoclave (steam sterilize) the specimens before disposal. I knew that it was going to stink pretty bad, so I loaded up my autoclave with a couple of hundred specimens, turned it on, and went to lunch. When I returned, the commander's secretary was sitting in her chair on the grass outside of her office talking on a phone that had been run out the window. When she saw me, she hung up the phone, stood up, arched her back and not so politely told me that the commander wanted to see me the instant I returned. Nothing can prepare you for the smell of a couple of hundred containers of soupy poo cooking in the lab, and they weren't amused, but I was. Hey, regs are regs, and some of them stink worse than others. |
