Week Seven A

Lots of progress this week! So far we have mounted our water sampling device (the syringe) and connected the plunger to a motor with fishing line. The motor spins, pulling the syringe plunger out, which will in turn draw the water sample into the syringe tube.

Below are some pictures and videos of the syringe and string attachment sampling system. Look for another post this week describing any other modifications!
