This week is all about finishing the final project

Goals

Complete your final project, tracking your progress: what tasks have been completed, and what tasks remain? what's working? what's not? what questions need to be resolved? what will happen when? what have you learned?

Accomplishments

Finished up project and prepared final video and slide

Question to me answered

What tasks have been completed, and what tasks remain?

The machine is functional but I am not happy with the wiring between the control board and the breakout boards as the wires are a bit of a mess. My focus is on cleaning up the wiring , labeling etc.

Here is my overall work plan

You can find the link to the suppliers in the attached file

What's working? what's not?

It is all functional, spinning plate and water pump.

I do have some water leaks and so I will be redoing the main box sealing using a new type of silicon.

What questions need to be resolved?

I have no current questions just cleaning up wiring and water leaks

What will happen when? what have you learned?

I will finish up the machine week of May 22nd and focus on documentation, video and slide week of May 29th

What have you learned?

I have learned a lot about embedded electronic development, working with water, and driving a water pump as well as making a water proof machine.

Overall fabacademy has been fantastic and provided me with a lot of foundational knowledge and lab knowhow that will allow me to take my skills to the next level.
