Everyone was in attendance to today's meeting.
We ordered a motor.
We made a CAD design of our project.
We ordered the parts for the laser cutting and 3D printing.






This part is meant to be laser cut and it acts as the base for the tower and it has groves in it so that the walls of the tower can fit and be stable.






These parts are meant to be laser cut and are the walls of the tower and they are going to support our motor, the motor is meant to lift a weight and drop it, so the tower also has to support the extra weight as well.






This part represents the motor and how it will fit into our structure.






This part is meant to be 3D printed and acts as a ramp that feeds the walnut into the device. We roughly measured the sizes of the walnuts which were inconsistently sized and the dimensions of the ramp seemed appropriate.




This part is the servo motor we have in our Arduino kit. This servo motor is meant to act as a blocker to prevent other walnuts from entering the crusher.
