Back to Baxter

You woke up at 0800 today so that you could meet Travis at the hardware store at 0900 this morning. You bought screws for the power transfer system and then headed back to your house. From there you carpooled  down to Baxter Academy for the second time this week.

Your arrived around 1030 and spent the rest of the day getting the PVC cut out for the through holes. The only short break we took from working was eating lunch across the street at Portland Pie Company. You had a few issues that you had to work out, and even almost broke the CNC machine. In the end it was worth it though as the holes were very smooth and fit the through holes almost perfectly.

You then went to frisbee where Freeport won against South Portland in a fairly easy game. You stayed after the game ended to watch B-team play Merriconeag.

You then headed back to your house with Liam around 1700 and worked on the power transfer system. The original plan we had fell through (as usual) and we are now going to order parts from McMaster to put together the final version sometime next week.

Finally you went to Travis's around 2000 with Liam (Josef was already there) and you had pizza for dinner. Then you started to work on the boxes that will hold the epoxied cameras. You have gone through 3 iterations of CAD models now, and expect to have a couple more tomorrow before getting the best option.
