Week 7 Update

For this week, I decided to finish up the straight section of the third rail. David had pointed out that I needed to include this section to ensure that the bogie could safely pass over the gap presented at our junction. The straight third rail is the last addition to the third rail that I plan to be making. Below is the design. We will be getting a 2x2 bar

For the rest of the week, I focused my attention on finding out where and when we can start building our guideway. We know that we have some extra metal scraps lying around for the supports, but we still need the third rail made. We will be talking with other teams in order to find a manufacturer ASAP.
