An Incomplete List

I don't have a lot of time today but here's a list the projects that are in progress:
  • A robot prototyping platform (haven't worked on it for awhile): I wanted to make a simple, multipurpose robot for trying sensors and algorithms out but got stuck thinking of a way to mount the tires to the wheels. It (if it could move) can navigate between points on an imaginary coordinate plane and as a fun test want it to be able to paint with light by taking a long exposure of the robot moving.
  • A CNC machine: I'm currently working on this and have already completed the X-axis and Y-axis but haven't mounted the motors or leadscrews yet. I have all the parts for the rest of the machine and the electronics but need to find some more free time to get it done. It's a JGRO (Plans) design. The major problem I'm hitting now is lining up the motors and leadscrews so they are perfectly lined up.
I'll add some images at a later time.
