-Folding for shipping to reduce assembly -Suspension coil system -Heating sma in certain areas to follow a pipe with many bends (like an endoscope)

-Scan table of contents in book and then appropriate chapters (upload to open lab) -learn about Dr. Johnson sma engine (make a video and upload to open lab through you tube) -Check how much wire we have(lengths and diameters)
