Overview of Status of Analysis, Design, Fabrication, Tests, etc.
Finished design and fabrication of the risk reduction component.
Accomplishments from Previous Week
Came up with two new improved designs and picked the one that works better to be 3D printed.
Improved design for pressure gauge holder, and finish 3D printing prototype of the holder
Goals for Next Week (list names after each item). Use specific and measurable objectives.
Fully assemble the holder prototype
perform some detailed analysis of the choice of springs or rubber bands.
Finalized the holder part and move to the next stage
Finish the risk reduction powerpoint.
Shoot a video of the current filling process to better illustrate the problems.

Instructor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
The instructor pointed out that our holder should not rely on gravity to fix the component because it can be unreliable. We reconsidered our design requirements and updated our model
The instructor suggested we should perform some quantitative analysis on our risk reduction component, we are working on FBDs for our component and some measurement for the tightness of the gauge.
