11 am - 1.30 pm; 2.30 pm to 5 pm; 7.30 pm - 8 pm.
1. Power connector designs (2 hours)
2. CAD drawing (3 hours)
3. Machine shop intro (0.5 hours)
------------------------------------------------------------
1. Discussed power connector designs with Saurabh and Jason - we have still not come up with a completely satisfactory design for a power connector. We have just decided to go through an iterative design process where we try out a prototype, see if it works for our purposes and then make appropriate changes if it doesn't.
2. Worked on CAD drawing - abandoned the CAD drawing after discussing out with Jason and coming out with a simple design that did not need too much detail We will come back to the CAD drawing if required, when we make the final product we need.
3. Got a quick introduction from Jason on the milling machine and its particular characteristics, which I will primarily be using and also went to the Emerson Machine shop to check out if they would allow me to use their facilities - turns out I need training.
