Notes

Not going to test 1" compression, and probably not 1.5", just test 2" and maybe more if wanted (in .5" increments), should be quick to route if needed.

Work Completed

  • Routed fingers for the shooter
  • assembled shooter gearbox
  • generated CAM for shooter side plates
  • printed hex adapters and hub for fairlane wheel

Challenges

None

Work for Next Meeting

  • Determine which wheels to test and put them on the BOM along with other needed parts that aren't already in the shop!
  • Route side plates for the shooter (CAM file is loaded into the router, stock is on G54)
  • CAD, slice and print spacers for shooter
  • Assemble shooter (if above are finished)
  • Shooter from the summer project:
    • cut longer hex shaft
    • two shooting wheels in the middle with shaft collars
    • attach belt
    • start shooting - device some SAFETY steps first!!!!
    • adjust the angle and compression by re-positioning the polycarbonate hood (MEASURE and drill new holes), play with rpms, one wheel, two wheels, add weight (flywheel) etc. The balls are surprisingly sticky BTW.

On Schedule?

Yes
