what are some things that can be used for a reverse engineering exercise (i.e. things to reverse engineer)try to think of things that are inexpensive and dont need special parts[Edited on August 16, 2010 at 4:42 PM. Reason : ]

for most it is a Lounge thread, but i expect some creative ideas in CC, aside from the inevitable bullshit

I'm not doing your homework for you bammer

thank god

I reverse engineered a gluestick once...Also a stapler but that was harder. If you want real easy maybe scissors.

i thought about a fishing reel, but i dunno if i could find any for like $3 or less lol

define reverse engineer. just take it apart to see how it works? or are you going to have draw up and fabricate existing parts? when i was a senior in ME i led a (taught?) seminar of incoming freshman where they had to disassemble a simple 2 stroke chainsaw engine and put it back together. they seemed to enjoy it. i think the engines were donated or something, i don't really know. if you're going the fabrication route, i'd suggest something simple like a shaft with a sprocket and some bearings. (ie the drive shaft on your lawnmower)[Edited on August 16, 2010 at 7:00 PM. Reason : .]

this is just like a one-hour thing ... traditionally it's been a mechanical pencil, which i think is quite boringwe thought about a cheap analog watch, but we're not sure if they'll have the right tools (small enough) to mess around with the parts

Flashlight.

in that case a (bait casting) fishing reel has a bajillion moving parts on the inside and is impossible to rebuild without some prior knowledge or a diagram. i found out the hard way. but it is pretty neat to see how the internals work. a flashlight might be a good idea, actually. there's more there than it appears at first glance.

i would need about 10 of whatever we decide onand don't think we want to spend more than 40 or so total

why don't you reverse engineer some new Panthers photoshops
8/16/2010 7:26:02 PM
find me some good unused black panther party pictures and i might be more motivated
8/16/2010 7:29:21 PM
those are a staple and everything, but i enjoy the comicsof course we can blame the CO's photographers for lack of material

yeah, that guy in 2006 was just sitting there snapping shot after shot of the same scene ... they need him back
8/16/2010 7:32:10 PM
he probably got let go due to downsizing right after the Big Cat & Friends era
