Above Ground Housing

On Wednesday evening the group visited the prototyping lab and laser cut the different pieces of the box to enclose the electronics for above the water.  At one point the laser caught on fire.  The laser also omitted two cuts on the clear cover and had to be reset.  The team managed to get the logo raster cut onto the top of the enclosure to make the lid look more official.  Included is a screen capture of the housing for the above ground Arduino and the battery that the power is coming from.
