April 29



We added the gear box and wheels to the body. It's starting to look like a robot now.

April 28




We added these wooden blocks to the robots to give the brass axles more support.

April 27



We added the brass axles to our wheels along with a rubber coating around the wheels for more traction.

April 26



We cut out our wheels. We made them 3 1/2 inches instead of 3 for various reasons. Mainly to make the robot move more quickly.

April 25



We completed making the arm. We used Styrofoam and Masonite for support.
