K'nex Bridge Competition
--------------------------------

After two weeks of building and planning, our group was finally able to construct a final design for the second design project of the K'nex Bridge competition. We constructed a bridge that used a similar X design on the sides of each block while adjusting the previous design to fix the new constraints of the bridge. We also modified the end of the bridge to be much stronger and to connect with the legs in a much stronger connection.
