Week of 11/3 - 11/8

This week I started by fixing the ramp since I had glued it backward the first time, and then I was running into some issues with the ramp not being steep enough when it was attached to the board so that the balls would just wait at the top so I had to fix the angle of the screw. I also added a "leg" to support the ramp so it would stay at the fixed angle.

One issue I was having was that the balls were getting stuck at the bottom, but when I fixed the angle of the screw that seemed to fix this problem as well since the hot glue was no longer in the way,

Also, the angle of the pipe and the ramp were a little off after glueing them both to the board so in order to glue them together I cut a small piece of PVC pipe in order to make a connector and that seems to work well.

I have a few more minor things to work on like figuring out a way to make sure the screw does not fall out of the pipe but other than that most of the hardware for the board is done, and now I just have to create the motor controller which I can hopefully start by the end of next week.
