Design

Sketches

To figure out exactly how I am going to make the CFT box that holds the worms and compost I made a few sketches to visualize everything.

During the brainstorming session I decided to make the entire CFT box with the CNC shopbot. I liked how Benjamin Lemay made the legs for his system so instead of inventing the wheel again I borrowed his idea. I also intend to design and 3d print 90° degree brackets to support the finger joints and corners. The structure needs to be well supported and strong because there will be quite a lot of weight in the CFT system when it is full with compost.
