Bogie Team Update Week of 7/18-7/22

During this week, we spent the majority of our time fixing little changes in our design for fabrication. We created the template for the 2-D pieces to be laser cut. Afterwards, the template and a sheet of MDF wood were taken to the laser cutter on campus, We got our wooden bogie pieces laser cut. There were a few issues where the laser burnt too much material and the dimensions were slightly off. We also sent the metal pieces of our project to a machine shop, where the machinist pointed out any defects in our design. We are working on perfecting these defects in our design.
