• part 0114 got trimmed down to 18.5"
• intake back channel trimmed to 18" & deburred
• elevator second stage and carriage are put together minus the inside rollers and intake plates. Will add those tomorrow when the spacers arrive and the intake rotation plates are routed.
  • carriage doesn't slide in the second stage super nicely but it could be the missing spacers
• elevator first stage side support are tapped and drilled, will be mounted
  • first stage verticals are tilted forward unevenly. could be fixed after mounting the side supports and the crossbar at the top, but dunno..
  • apparently the belly pan/frame was assembled a little off? no one seems to know details
• finished mounting perforated aluminum on one ramp using rivets. Will order washers for comp bot ramp. out of material, need to route/order more.
• set up a makeshift testing hinge for ramp with round tube on bottom rung of ladder. Probably need something a little stronger.

• people don't read notes, so they missed the part where it says to "make extra sure the inside distance is correct on both top and bottom of stage"​
• waiting for parts to arrive

• make practice bot functional ASAP!
  • elevator
    • supports from crossbar near bottom need to be attached
    • assemble inside rollers when spacers arrive or make some
      • change the order of spacers/bearings on the inside sliders
    • When attaching top to middle stage, make extra sure the inside diameter is correct on both top and bottom of stage, and carriage moves smoothly, no brackets rubbing, etc.
    • when fully assembled, test it electrically
  • intake
    • One back channel piece has been routed, should be on router table.  Cut this to 18" length, Bob should have marked the side to cut.
    • Use above piece to mount one side of feeder and test it. This prob can't happen until Tues night, since we're waiting in mcmaster parts for intake.
    • If the one side works, Bob will get second back channel routed
    • need lexan plates routed for feeder arms
  • ramp
    • dampener on bottom of frame
    • figure out how to actuate ramp pistons (more pistons? passive? CAM style drop?)
    • attach pistons to frame, somehow
    • finish attaching perforated alum
    • intake
      • intake hinge plates
      • cut arm lexan plates
      • mount motors (10:1 arriving soon hopefully? otherwise the 5:1s might be ok)
      • implement actuation
    • electrical
      • test robot
      • controls iteration
      • test auto
    • drivetrain
      • if wheels are wobbly / shafts are too long, add a spacer on the outside and put the bolt over
• bumpers
  • uh, make em
