We built four linear stages out of cardboard, following the SCIENCE project. I helped with the assembly of the stages — folding and gluing cardboard, adding motors and guide screws, and fitting the guide shafts.
Here is our assembled machines, with the different stages fit together:
The assignment for this week was to design and build a wireless network connecting at least two processors.
