You had a pretty good day today. You woke up around 0800 again and then headed over to Travis's. While there you made sure that the whole Hobbyking order was ready to go down to Baxter (meaning you tested motor controllers).
You then went to Baxter with Liam and worked on the camera structure. You ended up having to make it much more rigorous and held together in more places (as you broke it into more pieces). You spent almost two hours reworking the design and getting it ready to 3D print.
You then had to export all the SolidWorks files as .stl files so that the printer could use them. After getting the parts all ready you had Mr. Amory start the 3D printer. It seemed to be working well so you went and looked at the through holes. Turns our you need to modify the G-code a little so that they print better.
After that you went back to the computer lab and started work on heat-sinks. You then headed back to Freeport for frisbee, which was unfortunately cancelled due to the weather. So, instead, you went back to Travis's and worked on a couple miscellaneous things.
Then you returned to your house and worked on the heat-sinks even more. You then ate a quick dinner and headed to the Performing Arts awards (as you were part of the musical this year). After returning home you fine tuned the heat-sinks and once again arrived at a possible solution.
