Began work on redesigning the turret to be gear driven (instead of being belt driven)
Changed pulley for gear (230T 20DP)
Challenges
I probably deleted the part templates when updating to SW 2019-2020 so some parts have all of their dimensions in meters unless manually changed.
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.
