Progress

Basically, what we have done is to drill the dried bamboo and connect it with screws initially and lastly strengthening it with rafia string(applying Laws of Physics-tension, point of equilibrium), it took us some time but team effort is there...unity is stength after all...gonna find the covering material during the raya break and here we wish all Malaysians Happy Independance Day and all Muslims..Selamat Hari Raya..

we see hope and success....after all quoted from John Maxwell, efficiency is the foundation of survival,effectiveness is the pillar to success...no doubts, we will excel(confidence)

basically, now we found some tyres as our floating materials..and it costs us around RM30...worth it la..beter den tenggelam,..lagipun , boleh guna utk main di sungai..beach!!! haha...our structure will be mainly built next week as we have to lend a drill from the bengkel..however, all the materials are ready..team GENESIS are confident!

After gathering our materials, we have decided and deligated jobs and tasks to each member.

FoongYouSheng: Blog and documentation, base

Shew Chin Teck: Base, connections

Ong Boon Keong: Top part of Poseidon

Hopefully, we can finish building the top of Poseidon by this weekend and by next week, start with our base...and after raya, we will discuss on the aesthetic value, assemble, test and we are way to go on Sept 22!!!

So, to begin with, me(yousheng) and chintek went around komtar to search for connectors and the dried bamboo to be used. Apparently, Ong can't join us as he had issues..ohwell..the search must go on...here were found the dried bamboo and found some connectors...hope this works...
