The Orange Is Not Enough

The 2007 machine was built with the task of squeezing an orange into orange juice.  Based on a secret agent theme, our hero OOJ battled with his arch nemesis Dr. Peeler, using all his gadgets to defeat him and find the only cure to his lethal toxin.  That cure was orange juice.  After approximately 3000 man hours put into the machine, we had built a 155 step machine that won 1st place at Regional competition, 2nd place at National competition, and the People’s Choice Award.  Check below for photos and video of our hero OOJ in action.
