this week we created a few utensils that were used to simulate the bogie with its maximum and minimum tolerances. This served the sole purpose of ensuring that the bends were within spec so that the bogie would not fall or get stuck. We also finished up a drawing of the support mount that would fix the support post to one position without moving. It would simply slip onto the pole and then three legs of dimensions 1"x 0.25" would be placed into the three remaining slots. We also began working on the presentation, but that is not our utmost priority right now as we need to finish welding ASAP because the tech shop will be closed starting Friday, March 3 until March 16. We have been maintaining communication with the other teams and attempting to draft a Bill of Materials since time is running out and we are depending on other teams for their numbers and SolidWork files.
This next week, we will be attempting to finish most, if not all, of the welds. We will be working on our papers, completing our presentation, and ordering the last of the stuff we need.
