Almost There

The past week wasn't as productive as we'd hoped due to the scarcity of time slots on the mill. However, our car assembly is finished including the main car module, the sweeper system, and the mechanical arm. If we can get some time on the mill Monday we should be able to finish our flipper blocker, which was proposed as a "time permitting" module anyways. We can also devote a lot more time to driver's training now, which is going to be key to our machine not getting stuck in the slot or funnels.
