School, and Plenty of It

I've been so slammed with work the past few weeks. I haven't been able to train nearly as much as I want to, or should be. I'm almost done with one side project I'm doing for my Senior Design class. My team is building a super-high mileage car, for which we plan on using Zipp track disc wheels with disc brakes for the two front wheels. I designed and machined a set of hubs that we can use to practice driving the vehicle with so we don't mess up the Zipp wheels before competition in April.

This was my first major machining job, and I'm estimating it took me 16 hours to finish both hubs.
