Our solution was to have a graduate teaching assistantmeasure the cart-tipper, then draw and dimension two-dimensional isometric drawings of itscomponents. These drawings were placed on the course server as well as shown on thedistributed paper copy of assignment directions. Digital photographs of the cart-tipper wereloaded onto the course server to provide overnight and remote access to visual aids. Finally, the
