Over this week the Wayside time has been working on completing the project. The mechanical team has been putting the final touches on the assembly. The nuts and bolts are being determined and places in the assembly. The arm mechanism can be seen in figure 1. The electrical team has been working on the 2D schematic and brainstorming what else can be completed without access to physical prototyping tools.
