Contribution

I designed a test gearbox using PCB waste gears that ended up being the final gearbox, with different gears.

• Cutting acrylic in the laser printer, parameters:
  • 2.5mm thick at 90 power, speed 2 in rayjet 400.
  • 5.5mm thick at 90 power, speed 1 in rayjet 400.

I did the final cut of the project video after Carolina did most of the editing.

I designed a board that didn't make it into the final project.
