Today we finished drawing the second part and have started to print it. So far it is taking 2 hours.
Next class we will have several parts drawn out.

Since the first piece was drawn we started to make all of the other parts of the tracker to the proportion of the first piece. The piece on top interlocks with the base. Soon all the pieces will be drawn and 3d printing takes a while which will start after the drawings are done for each piece.

Today we printed the first piece to test it out and see how it looks. The dimensions were kind of guessed on. When it finished printing it came out well. Since we decided to make the dimensions in mm instead of cm the thickness was messed up so it would have to be redone.

Due to there being a college fair at school we could not work on the project. There were some interesting schools but they are not my choice.
