Fixed chains and spacers. Painted brackets. Still need to do bumpers. Also need to modify the cart to fit the drive base.


Arm/Manipulator

Working on deploying arm from "park" to fully extended. The "elbow" joint will have a notch that hooks onto a small horizontal peg on the robot frame when the arm's in park; when the arm is moved, the notch will rotate off the peg and the arm can then lock. Wires will need to run on the inside of the elbow joint. Testing needs to be done to see whether the manipulator will whack into the ground when the arm extends, and if so, how hard (will it knock the ubertube loose?).
