DESIGN+BUILD PROJECTS BY CLEMSON COMMUNITY BUILD
Do you find yourself dropping your nickels? We did, and so we came up with this really ingenious idea. By drilling a hole in the nickel and tying it to a string so that you can fasten it to your belt. Silly? I think not. So after another long day of work, we were able to [...]
The students of Studio V, with a LOT of help and guidance from Professor Pastre I must say, have been keeping busy on the build for over a month now. The build has been running pretty smoothly as of late, with much progress made through the weekend and up to today. We have the whole [...]
