Agenda: Set up 3D printer, build suction cup adapter
In attendance: Mentor Chris, Hayden, Sean, Liam, Tristan, Kairon, Connie, Coach Cynde
Note taker: Tristan
Reflection: Connie worked with Chris to build a syringe suction cup adapter to see if it could work as a collection arm for the robot. It works really well, except that the suction cup is too small and doesn’t hold the Skystone when there is movement. Coach cynde said that she can bring a larger syringe and some larger suction cups to see if we can reproduce the concept on a larger scale. We discussed whether the device would be legal and checked the rule books. Since only the servo is mechanical, it appears legal. Although Liam’s grabber works, we will continue to develop this alternate arm and test which works more consistently too determine which we will use at competition.
We have been unable to locate the charging cord for the 3d printer and cannot print our adapter without it.
Kairon has officially joined the team!
We took a team photo and plan to create posts each day for sponsor appreciation. Our sponsors and donors are Umpqua Orthopedics, Frank Wood and the Wood Family Ranch, Roseburg Forest Products, Con-Vey Keystone, Barbara & Jim Maxham, Addcox Heating, and Larae Simmons. Thank You all for your Generous donations and for supporting Elkton robotics!
