This week, our team used the water-jet to cut the sides of our bot. We also spent a lot of time in the machine shop milling and lathing. Unfortunately, the lathe that we signed up for broke before we had a chance to use it and some quick thinking on Peter's part got us a new time slot. Some of the machining we did included:

E-clip slits,
finished L-brackets,
Completed the jamming arm assembly (the ratchet and aluminum plate came on Tuesday),
Milled cut in our stainless steel rod
We also tested our scoring arm to make sure it worked fast enough (which it did).

The only thing left to do assemble all the pieces together, which we will do on Monday.
