+ | * Presented on possible [[Laser Beam Redirection|beam redirection mechanism]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===October, 21, 2010=== | ||
+ | * Decided that we would indeed be using the [[HAAS VF-0 CNC Machine|Haas VF0]] located in the student machine shop | ||
+ | * Talked to Mike Schnaff about the types of tool holders the larger the slant of the holder, the more stable the tool is: categorized into CAT40/CAT50/CAT60 | ||
+ | * Decided to use the L-shaped mirror mounting | ||
+ | * Considered whether to purchase an additional tool holder and then modify it, or make a pin on the top of the mirror mounting. | ||
+ | * Ultimate decision: Pin on the top of the Mirror Mounting, Cheaper than purchasing a new tool holder | ||
+ | * Discussed mounting pin diameter. | ||
+ | * Final diameter: 0.75” | ||
+ | * Drew up initial designs | ||
+ | * Delegated responsibilities | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===November, 3, 2010=== | ||
+ | * Initial SolidWorks design drafted | ||
+ | * Only achieved general understanding with the rest of the class, as all specifications are missing. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===November, 17, 2010=== | ||
+ | * Design finalized, but technical SoldWorks drawing cannot be completed until the optical package arrives and final specifications can be implemented in the design. | ||
+ | * C channel extruded aluminum forms basis of final design. | ||
+ | * Waiting on mirror mount and mirror/lens combination specifications |
