With the simplified designs from last week, I was able to make significant progress this week on the construction of robot frame.\u00a0 During the week, I was able to use the wood working tools in the makerspace to cut 2×3 wood planks into the necessary shapes for construction.

This proved to be very challenging, so this time we decided to switch to using glue. We thought glue would be a better choice since its easy to apply has a relatively strong bond.
