feeder prototype still in progress:

-we moved the mechanism from 80-20 to square channel 

-changed the whole arm to hinge back and forth

-added power to the passive wheels (we now have 4 powered wheels)

-decided that a platform underneath the mechanism would not interfere and would allow the feeder to keep the box stable on the trip up the elevator

-the mechanism is currently mounted on nanodrive for testing

not sure if surgical tubing will be strong enought to keep the box up at all orientations --> may consider using three point pistons to either clamp or tension the arms.

FIgure out how we want to tension:

--> protoype the idea with pistons to see the grip and compression (may need parts printed to do this properly)

--> also try to make the surgical tubing more tensiony/stable to see if it will work without pistons
