Bandbeesten: The Legacy Goes On

The Bandbeesten project is back yet again at the University of Idaho. This project is a Kaizen event (continuously improving) involving the Mechanical Engineering Department and the Vandal Marching Band. This marks the seventh consecutive year of the collaboration. There are many areas in need of improving but the main focuses are improving the rigidity of the piano, adding lights to improve showmanship, and simplifying the wiring harness. This project also includes designing and manufacturing a sousaphone stand that is relatively cheap, easy to transport, and robust enough to use for years to come.
