Compound Machines II

We just completed our 1st week of building the compound machines. The reason we are doing these is two fold; first, you need to get used to the idea of how to build with the robot parts, and second, there are no directions on how to build the robots, you are given a task and have to design your own robot. By knowing these compound machines and how they change direction and size of a force you can figure out what to do. Thus you really need to pay attention to how the input force is changed by the output force so that you understand what to do later.
You should have at least five of the eleven compound machines constructed, how are you doing?
