Uptade!

After giving information of how to dispense salt, now it is time to talk about the different "types" of snow shovel salt dispensers.
The first one is going to be on a wheel, like a dozer. The way it works is simply by pushing from the back. The wheel will be placed on the shaft that has a curve, so that the wheel will fit underneath it. When you start shoveling, you will simply lift up the handle a couple inches so the shovel part will touch the ground. Then you will push until the shovel is filled with snow. By doing this, the wheel will help you, by rotating, push snow easily. Once your shovel is full, this time you will move the handle down to create a torque and carry the snow wherever you want to dump. Convenience of this situation is that the wheel will do all the work. Thus you do not have to deal with back problems and so on. Once shoveling is done, you will be able to start dispensing salt with either of the ways, by motion or with a motor device, that we explained before.
As we have discussed so far there are different types of shovels and also different ways to dispense salt. Having all these options requires a lot of data, which would occupy a huge space in the computer. Since we do not want to take risks regarding loosing the information we have accomplished so far, we need to store our data somewhere. Now our knowledge from class kicks in. At week 5, we learned about the importance of backing up files. There are many online sites that we can use. Therefore we will back up our data online to "mozy", which is the cheapest per gigabyte.
