Today I worked on drilling the holes in the box. I had to measure the pieces of wood by inches and watched Mr. Gary cut the wood. I also learned how to find sizes of the tools. I watched Roy get the robot's arm moving.

wheels
Well, i just finished the front two wheels. However, we may want to put some more pop rivets in the tread just to make sure it is held down good. I may try to stop and get them on the way to the meeting. Or if anyone has some they could bring, that would be great too!

Servos are evil
Roy, Mr. Anderson, and I were trying to get the servos on the camera to work. We were going to all kinds of websites, trying everything we could think of, driving ourselves insane. You have to have the back up battery plugged in.... Other than that and some parts not showing up it was a very productive day. Mrs. Hayes, thanks for the Valentine cupcakes.
Building the Shipping Crate
Today Nikki, Mr. Billy and I built the shipping crate today. Nikki and I got to drill everything on the crate. It took us all day to build it. We couldn't finish the wheels again this week because the gears are still not in. We still have to finish the arm for the robot also.

Next Saturday's Meeting
Well, we have two more saturdays left before the shipping date. I believe that Josh will have the material for the arm by then. However, I think it might be a good idea to go ahead and start making plans for what we plan to accomplish. That way we are not sitting there wondering what to do next like we did on the previous meeting. Also, can anyone think of some items we need to bring to the next meeting? The more prepared we are, the more we will get done.
