Week 4 Status Report – Mark McKinzie

Early this week I worked on completing and editing the design review document. In addition I completed my ethics case study assignment.

Due to the setback on the poker chip construction we needed to order new chips and they did not arrive this week so I was unable to complete any work on that aspect of the project.

Chris and I completed the full Solidworks assembly of the shuffler and dealer combined module. The picture of that will appear in his report.

This week was not hugely productive but that owes to the fact that I had a midterm in 18-491 that spent much of my time studying for.

Next week I plan to fabricate 3 poker chips, one for each value: $5, $10, $50. I also plan to flesh out the specifics of which parts of the shuffler will be 3D printed and which will be manually fabricated. If time remains I will build a play area contact for the chips.
