Notes

When we have things to do, they should be done instead of skipping work then just giving up.

Make sure that everyone is on the same page so we dont have 10 people playing cards when theres work to be done and parts being dissassembled when they're still needed.

Work Completed

Wedge finished and drilled, but forgot to put in bag.

Added our number to 3 out of 4 sides of the bot, 4th side will be on the sponsor plate.

The peple playing cards took a short break to clean the second drivetrain.

Put the non-competition ready bot in the bag.

Challenges

Nobody wanted to work.

The lifter got disassembled before proper lifting and clamping tests could be completed, so the lifter still sticks and we don't know if clamps stick under load or if the boxes slip.

Work for Next Meeting

Attach a mini-CIM to the lifter gearbox to be able to lift more totes. Currently capable of 2 totes and a container.

On Schedule?

No. The bot is not complete, tested, and lifter system will get stuck and unwind and skip the pulley in its current form.

Increase the pressure given to the clamp pistons to ensure a better grip on the totes and container.
