Description: In the Description box summarize your project in a few sentences, make sure to include the following:

- Important details/ struggles that people may face while duplicating your design
Project Files
Make sure to upload All of your project files including; designs, cad files, code, assembly instructions, market research, BOM, your lab presentation, as well as your final report. Anything that can be used to recreate your designs. Keep in mind the following:
- All project files must be kept up to date throughout the semester
- Standard file types like .pdf, .stl and .txt should be included along with the design files to insure that your project can be viewed without the specific software you used to create it.
Pictures
Include a minimum of 5 pictures of your design/solution using the Gallery. Please try your best to take “web worthy” photos (imagine you are selling your solution, make it look presentable) and so that every part of it is shown.
Additional Information
- YouTube Link: During the class you have recorded a 1 minute video describing your design/solution as a deliverable. Upload the video on YouTube and submit the link here.
- Categories: Choose GNG1103/1503 or GNG2101/2501 and any other that you think are relevant. This increases the discoverability of your project.
- Equipment: Choose the equipment you have used for your project.
