Ella’s Status Report for 3/21

This week I got a lot of fabrication and test-fitting done. I got the focus mechanism fully assembled and working and decided to add a microswitch for homing. I am on schedule as of right now and am excited to see things coming together. In the next few days I will hopefully have all the major assemblies put together and then can start doing a full integration. I’m hoping to make nice fabrication drawings from my solidworks models, but we will see if I have time; at the end of the day I know how to fabricate the assemblies and don’t need the drawings, I kind of just want to have them because I think it would be cool and nice. I’m a little worried about the interim demo just because it is a lot of stuff to get done soon, but also we are on schedule and it should all work out. Included are some rough model images from various parts of the project in various stages.
