While hardware and designing stuff was being settled, we had to decide on our controller – and oh boy was this a nightmare. One of the days we started to experiment on Arduino Mega setup for 3D Printing that was available in the MnT lab. It was a long day at lab trying to code […]
Now that we knew that the flow system and slow cooling are factors that play a part in obtaining clear ice, it was time to start modelling our final prototype. There were a lot of things that we had to consider while planning for our design: how to position each component, dimensions of each component, […]
Since implementation of Phase 2, it was easier for all of us to visit the lab. Hence we made several trips down the lab (about 2 each week). First few lab visits since 3 Jul visit: We conducted a few trials with our makeshift, insulated ice making setup using low current to achieve slower freezing. […]

We started our day at 10am in the M&T lab. BABY 1 This time we decided to try TEC12715 modules instead of TEC12706. TEC12715 has a higher current threshold (15A vs 6A) which meant it could be more powerful. However, we only experimented on one TEC module first with a few drops of water to […]
We went out to hunt for more things we needed on a Saturday. We met at 10 in the morning in order to be able to visit every hardware store we had in mind. We went to Lavender, the haven of hardware and piping stores. In the first half hour we managed to find pipe […]
Since implementation of Phase 2 of Post Circuit Breaker and availability of many slots for lab, the entire team decided to make our way down to the M&T lab. Buuuut before we went to lab, we met up at Plaza Singapura at 10.30am (when the shop opens) to buy cheap Styrofoam boards form ArtFriend for […]
