Shift 2 started again today at 3:00 pm, with a massive amount of work still to be done.
Build Day #38 Shift 1
While listening and singing to Disney music, we were continuously making progress on the robot.
Build Day #37 Shift 3
So guys, not much to say except for that IT’S CRUNCH TIME!!!! We have people working around the clock so we can get as much done on the robot as possible. We attached our compressor, tanks, pneumatic cylinders, solenoid, etc. So in a few words, Pneumatic System Assembly.
Build Day #37 Shift 2
Shift 2 began with the practice robot driving around, collecting balls, and shooting them.
We continued to work hard to get the competition robot ready to go. We started wiring the robot, but we were halted when some red gel threadlocker caused a couple of bolts to snap.
Mill Operation
Hello everyone, we here at Bear Metal thought it would be neat to make a short video of a basic Mill Operation. In the Video, you will see us milling our logo out to be put on our multi-tool! Enjoy!
Build Day #37 Shift 1
Recently, we got the entire practice robot wired and ready for the programming! When we went to initially test it, the only thing that worked was our drive code. WIth a little bit of time, and some tweaking, we were able to get all of our basic code working! Press Continue to watch the Video!
Build Day #36
Well, today we wired up the rest of the Chassis and Ball Collector so the programmers can test their recent code.
Build Day #35
Hey everyone! We’re only 5 days away from packaging our robot! We’ve devised a 7 hour shift system to maximize our efficiency. Today, the mill was running well as always.
