I shifted my focus from software side to work on building the gantry in preparation for the upcoming demo. Ethan and I worked mainly on laser cutting. We ran into some issues on that end since the laser cutters we were using turned out to be faulty. That obstacle aside, we finished laser cutting all the pieces we need to build the gantry. We plan on finishing the build early this coming week. Once that is done, we can start testing how uploaded files translate into actual motion on the gantry.
I made some progress on the flash website. I added the website feedback so users can see the upload and conversion status. The goal next week would be starting to connecting everything from upload to sending commands.
I am a little less behind schedule than last week. I am confident that once we the build gantry running with the G-code, we will be in a good spot.
