Accomplished:

• The new sliding device to lift the crates
• tracks laid out - builts two tiers
• Ordered more metal bars to build another tier with

Problems:

• The two tiers can fall off of each other when elevated to a certain angle
• Must find out how to prevent them from falling - attach an angled piece on the top to prevent it from falling all the way?

Cardboard template to be transfered to sheet metal

Redesign Lift and Arm:

• Scizzor Jack will not lift the crate high enough for maximum points
• Too weak to hold the gripping device for the crates
• New idea - Create a number of tiers and use a sliding mechanism with pulleys to slowly pull tiers upwards and therefore also pull the crate up with the gripping mechanism. ---maximum points collected
• Able to hold the gripping mechanism

12/7/11

Accomplishments:

• Power Supply connected to the robot
• Three treads placed in the interior of the robot (top front and back axles placed for the treads)

Problems:

• The scissor jack that was supposed to elevate the crates cannot hold the weight
• Must think of a new idea on how to lift the crate to maximize the amount of points

• Possible ideas include an elevator like device to push the crate upwards, and a system of pulleys that can lift metal pieces
• Must see if we can use string

Rube Goldberg- Why my homework was late

Why make things easy when you can over complicate things and learn
