Make a cart that does not suck |
And so began Spring 98's quest to furnish the Chris Vadala and the Jazz Department with a moving cart for their drum set and other equipment. Adam graciously wakes Noah out of bed at 8:20 in the morning while Phil calls up everyone else to make sure they get out of bed. Noah fell back to sleep. Rob, Chris, Marcus, Noah, and Adam finally make it to the front of Denton at 9:15 where Adam's parents are waiting to take us to their house. Thanks! After picking up Phil, we all (minus Jeff) get to the place and then run up to Lowes to grab our wood. Phil drew out the plans, again, and listed the parts we need. Noah made sure to mark down that "we need rubber bumpers!" At Lowes, we grab a set of 2x4x8 and a pair of 2x6x8, along with nuts, bolts, screws, and BIG wheels. "You sure you want the brakes?"
After Noah maxed out his Dad's credit card, we all made it back and started to put everything together. Oh yeah...Jeff. We left a few thousand 'stereo' voice mail messages, but couldn't find him. He finally woke up and called at 1:30... and yadda yadda yadda.
Adam and Phil went to pick up Jeff from campus while everyone else drilled (and re-drilled) the holes in the cart design. ...
