Work Completed

We aligned the holes for the bearing sandwich plates. We added the rear secondary gearbox mounts and made holes for them. Wagner emailed us that he would talk with his friend. We also made lightening holes around the lettering ini a circular shape to match the wheels. They may or may not be used for the spinning wheel/matched LED thing. We currently have the inner plate finished, and the sides of the top plate finished, except for the rounds.

Challenges

We still have to resolve the bend problem. lighing up the sandwich plate holes with the shaft and the side plate proved etremely difficult and we spent perhaps 4 man hours total over the last 2 meetings trying to resolve it. It should be fixed now, luckily. We still need to assemble the bearings and sandwich plates to confirm that it works though. If it is still not aligned on one of the 4 wheels or more, this will continure to be a challenge.

Work for Next Meeting

Make lightening holes for the top plate, and the back and bottom sides. Assemble the bearings and sandwich plates. Round the lighting holes on the side.

On Schedule?

We are still on schedule, but CAD is proving to take much longer than anticipated. We expect to be done by Sunday, but only if Lyle works his ass off on saturday on the CAD
