this week I was responsible for finishing a rather urgent Bill of Materials which I did and e-mailed to the three people: Eric Hagstrom, Michael Kemp, and Neil Shankar. They are responsible for approving our budget which will then need to be approved by the A.S. It was an urgent bill of materials because we decided to 3D print all of our brackets which our teammate Jezreel has offered to do for us, free of charge (of course, not including the 3 orders of PLA filament which would cost around $75). I also dimensioned the overall dimensions of the track to make sure it fit the given area when presenting at Paseo Prototyping and Maker's Faire which was within a 15 by 15 feet area. Our track currently sits at about 13 by 13 feet as shown below. On Friday, Jez and I went to see VanderBend to talk about our quote and future meet-ups and were given a tour. Having gone to VanderBend, we got to see how they do things different from us and we were given a little information as to how the track manufacturing team and us should tackle the bending issue.
