Double dose- Part 1

So its been two weeks since my last post. However that didn't mean nothing happened last week, because infact stuff did happen. I just didnt do a post because i didnt know what exactly was done, as i wasnt there to witness everything because ive been recovering from a virus (still am infact) I managed to intend this weeks meeting and while there i was inform as to what got done on saturday, at our "build day" at college (as opposed to the tech day in southampton)
So that everything continues in the order it has been, as in newest stuff at the top. i shall split this post in to. one for saturday and one for wednesday (today)
Saturdaywell other than large amounts of pizza being eaten and half the team, out of the two that turned up, spending some time playing angry birds (picture of this can be seen on the team narnia blog) a good amount of stuff did actually get done. The flail, along with getting a small trim, had its bearings aattached and the chain drive gears were also attached. All that needs to be done now is mount it onto the chasis.

close up of the flail, gear for chain drive and some of the bearings.









The work on the rear wheels also continued, the connectorswere completed so the wheels were mounted to the motors. Then came the task of mounting the wheels and motors onto the chasis, this of course involved the use of our good friend aluminium. One set of wheel and motor was completly monted and the other was half done, ran out of time to finish it.
