We machined several parts over the past week and are going to show Mark 3 of them on Monday for MS7. We were scheduled to use the mill and lathe on Thursday from 4-8:30 but the shop was closed at 5, which set us back a little bit. We were still able to do the machining on Friday though. Here's a picture we took of us milling one of the motor mounts.
Something we overlooked in our design was the weight of the rotating arm. It was originally going to be 28"x2"x1" but we realized that would be too heavy for the small motor to power. However, we can just mill out the back of the arm into a "U" shape to decrease the weight.
