Throughout this week, we continue to work and build our final project. Most of the parts have been welded in place to ensure that we began to test and fix any problems. We were able to take the current bogie that we have and place it on the tracks to see any problems that may have arise. Some parts were not welded on until we tested the bogie on the rails to accurately place them in the correct spot. One thing of noticed is the since of the wheels, We might need to gather bigger guiding wheels to ensure that the bogie is sits straight and not at an angle. Also, the last parts have arrived thus we will be implementing the steering system soon enough. Overall, we are in the testing and finalizing the building stage. The other teams are dependent of us thus we want to finish as soon as possible for them to work around our bogie. We took our current bogie to the shop in order for the rest of the groups to see where they will fit and how their projects will assemble with our own. Overall, we are making good progress.
