Orientation Week 3

This week, we presented our plan for the rest of the month on how we planned to accomplish our project. I contributed in taking measurements of the previous small scale design prototypes, and analyzing how to modify the previous designs. We recorded the measurements in a notebook, and decided on modifying the design to something of a gondola design.

Week 3

This week, we plan on finishing manufacturing and assembling. On Monday, we gave a presentation to the team on our progress. We were able to reprint the bottom piece, and successfully printed out the second side piece. So now we have 3 parts of the cabin printed out. On Tuesday, we successfully printed out the top piece. We also listened to the presentation for the Mexico team. On Wednesday, we tested the printing quality of the TAZ bot by printing a test part from online. We also updated our bill of materials spreadsheet. Most of our parts are in house, but we still do need to buy a few parts which in total costs about $26. On Thursday, the inserts came in so we were able to fit them into the top and bottom pieces, and assembled the cabin together. I'm surprised the cabin was able to fit together perfectly the first time that we printed everything.
