It's about that time!
As we near the last couple days left before the project's deadline, our team's to-do list is finally shrinking in size! We spent Saturday in the machine shop finishing some of last components and features of our conveyor. During this time, we did run into a few small problems which need to be addressed in the shop on Monday. First of all, our rack for dropping the conveyor isn't gluing well with the backplate support that we made. We may decide to go without the backplate or find another way of connecting the two. Secondly, we still need to cut the tops of the conveyor plates so the whole module fits in the constraints. We still have yet to cut and fasten the belt, an this must be done precisely to prevent slack in the belt. We must lastly mount the motor and battery pack and test the machine to make sure all the parts function properly. The race to the finish has begun!!!
