-In this section we analyze the engineering decisions that were made during the design of our product, considering the many design questions ,in Table 1 (under the table one link above),of a few vital components of our product.In this section we also analyse the complexity of the parts in question useing our derived Complexity Scale which can be found under the Complexity Scale,see link above.  The parts which we pick are the Piston (Part Number 61),Piston Linkage (Part Number 66),Horizontal Disk (Part Number 135),Vertical Drive Disk (Part Number 137),Engine Block (Part Number 49),Auger Blades (Part Number 139),The Crankshaft (Part Number 50),The Flywheel (Part Number 63). We Picked these parts out of the many which exist on our Snow Blower Because of the vital role which they play with both the overall function of the snow blower as well as the internal energy flows and interaction which occur between them.

 *When looking at the crankshaft it can be seen that the rod all have smooth frictionless surfaces while the two weights have both a rough surface and a smooth surface.
 *The rod that holds the piston requires a smooth frictionless surface because this allow the piston to easily perform its function, since any friction done on the piston can offset the balance of combustion and cause engine failure. The rods on the outside are also smooth because it allows for the engine pulley and the flywheel to slide in smoothly and fit on tightly.
-*The crankshaft is a silver color which comes from the Armasteel it’s made of. Iron are a raw material comes in a grey color, and when smoothened becomes a silver color.

 *Since the flywheel is only required to be fit on the crankshaft, the surface of the rest of the flywheel  just needs to be roughly smoothed and it’s ready for use.
 *The flywheel is a brown color which at first was a grey color. After time when exposed to the surface, cast iron turns from a grey color into a brown color.

+*The flywheel as stated before has a rough surface finish which was just smoothed out to not have a bumpy surface by a smooth rough surface.
 *This surface finish is done for an aesthetic reason, so that the surface is smooth, and for a functional reason which allows each part of the flywheel to have equal weight allowing it the rotate smoothly.

 *In the bowl riser marks can be seen which identify that the flywheel was made by casting it.
 *The material had to be a heavy metal so therefore an efficient way of making the flywheel in large quantities would be by casting it.
-*The shape also needs to be consistent throughout so by casting it, adjustment can be made such as smoothening the surface so that no part of the surface is unequal.
+*The shape also needs to be consistent throughout so by casting it, adjustment can be made such as smoothing the surface so that no part of the surface is unequal.
 *The GSEE factors that influence these decisions are that cast iron can hold heat well and cast iron also has a long life cycle. It also doesn’t contain any sharp edges incase is has to be removed and it could also be easily replaced and recycled.
