This morning was really fun. I got to work with Aaron, a mechanical engineer, to mix the powders her bought in order to make a gel-like substance which I placed my hand into. After about 10 minutes, I removed my hand and there was a hollow spot where my hand was inside the gelatinous mass. Next we poured this other mixed liquid into the hollow area and it will solidify over night. In the morning, we will remove the softer outer shell and be left with a replica of my hand in a cement-like solid. This was really cool to experience.
After lunch I worked on getting the network card for a computer to be donated to work so that I can install new software onto the computer. This way, the new owners will have access to virus scanners and other fun applications. I watched Karl and Rob work through a lot of network issues and so I learned a lot about how the network system can be looked at, changed, restarted and located.
