Del Parker's Parkerosa


Project Schlepnik

After we were given the go ahead by NASA, we worked frantically for almost a week and a half to design a new unit, modifying the original prototype developed by Darla's team. 

Believe me, it was touch and go all the way.  We hadn't had any prior experience with high pressure holding tanks before.  Things got a little dicey on more than one occasion as we were using live ammunition in the holding tanks. 

We finalized the plans for the Schlepnik protein extraction unit in Hop Psyng's bomb shelter on Saint Swithen's Day - what a glorious day it was.
