Today we started designing the Solidworks part that will be 3D printed based off of our sketches that we drew yesterday. Erek and Tyler took the dimensions from the RC car and determined the overall size of the frame that we are building. KariAnn began the part creation using Solidworks and after that, Erek and Jeannie completed the part, changing the design slightly. The final part after 11/19/2013 is posted below:
The part has some flaws. Although the measurements are pretty good, the measurements will be retaken next week just to double-check. The part was hollowed out, although this may not be the best method as the structure may be too weak so we will have to rethink what we will do about the volume/overall structure.
