Behind the Chunkin

In case you hadn’t realized, a lot of work went into preparing our punkin chunkin for competition. We worked for over 150 man-hours and spent more than $300 worth of lumber, nuts, & bolts on our creation–but it was all worth it. Below are pictures of our design at various stages of completion during the design process.
