July 10 Meeting: Back at it

Today arm/lift work continued for our four bar linkage as well as work on the accumulator roller and driver practice continued as well.  Arm/lift is now powered by two motors and a 7:1 gear reduction (84:12) which was the determined target ratio based on earlier lift testing with our Gateway robot.  The accumulator roller prototype is now mounted to a temporary frame for initial testing purposes.  In all, one of those solid workmanlike meetings thatwill certainly pay off in the long run.
