We are a group of mechanical engineers from MIT designing a new generation yo-yo: the OREYOYO. That's right, we're combining the 2 best things in the world, Oreos and yo-yos. We will be posting updates on our design and manufacturing process here. Stay tuned!
From left to right: Amado Antonini, Brady Knight, Helen Nie, Orlando Ward, Colleen McCoy, Kale Rogers, and Marshall Craft.
Quick bios on the team...
Amado is an Oreo kind of person. He is a senior who spends his free time fixing or making stuff. He loves wood and metal especially. He likes traveling and playing sports as well. Oh and he eats other kinds of cookies too.
Brady: At heart
he wishes he could just spend all of his time in Papalardo lab, too bad
classes get in the way. He hopes to one day own a dog as comfortable
around the shop as Spencer.
Helen is a junior planning on going into product design. She is especially interested in toy, playground, and anything-flying design. She spends her free time trying to speak French and, as of recently, rowing.
Orlando: I enjoy long walks around a fully furnished machine shop and listening to the sound a work piece makes during a finishing cut. I'm a mechanical engineer who is very interested in automotive.
Colleen is a junior in course 2. She loves mechanical design, and is excited to learn how to make "real" stuff in 2.008. In her free time, she enjoys running and playing the cajon.
Kale: A part time rodeo clown in the summer of 2011, this rope-wrangler hopes to adapt his lasso skills to yo-yos!
Marshall: Bio? Nope, can't stand it I'm a Mechanical Engineer. The other type of bio? Well I like making things and I've survived two years here. Can't decide what I want to do with my life, maybe this class will help.
