2.70 Design Project- "New Challenges in Machining Cardboard"

Winner of a Wunsch Foundation Award.

Features:
*Continuously variable transmission made out of masonite, machined welding rods, and 2 supplied timing belts.

*One motor channel used as multiplexer to switch power to various functions and/or gear ratios.

*Injection molding: Custom tooling made for 2 timing sprockets and 70 articulated tread links. Thereafter, the contest rules were changed so you could not melt down and mold your thermoform plastics.
(I'm pretty sure this is why these guys hired me.)

*No setscrews

*Ability to adhere to any place on the field with suction pump.

*Grappling hook with CF spring and over dead center trigger.
