    Tuesday 11.17.20
    On Tuesday this week, I set up the 12V battery in the downstairs up to charge, in hopes of using it to power Leonce's foam cutter. I also set up a baking soda solution in order to neutralize any acid that may have leaked from the battery. I then continued to research powerplant solutions as the battery charged.
    Friday 11.20.20
    On Friday this week, I tested the voltage output of one of the large solar panels downstairs. I learned that it generates about 41 volts per panel. This is quite substantial, and may have a use for me later. I also helped Will to set up the laser cutter. I definitely intend to use the cutter in the future, so ensuring that it works was a very good thing.
    Week summary
    This week, I worked on the foam cutters some more, as well as the laser cutter. I charged up the battery and made sure no acid was leaking from it. I also tested the voltage that one of the medium-sized solar panels puts out. Third, I helped Will set up the laser cutter in the upstairs area. Next week, I intend to move my other wing sections into the E-lab, and I also intend to start designing a body for the wings I have.
