Week 4/25

Still waited for the sheet metal parts to come in. Dan said the vendors made an error and ended up shipping it with another client. I helped out the full scale control team with soldering and showed them stripping wire techniques that I've learned in my previous job.

Week 4/18

Not much progress as parts have yet to arrive. The full scale control has reached out to me to help figure out the pin connections on the motor driver. The manufacturer failed to deliver the pin connector adapter. I've reviewed the schematics and pin layout and see that its possible to solder wires.

Week 4/11

I have been updating the drawing for the sheet metal cut out every week as there have been a lot of revisions. Now, one of the largest parts, the downtube, was removed. This is due to recent calculations and simulations of legos by the other team memeber, Dan, showing that the current design has a flaw with its pivot mechanism.

The left side of this drawing was initially full.
