Templates ('Robot-Robot' Idea)

After materials are gathered and the buggy design was near finish, me, Dali and Mark discussed what shape to cut the acrylic top plate into. We discussed ideas and i suggested a robot profile with stick-on features, it is a simple idea and be easily designed and cut into acrylic without taking too much time or effort. This allows us to spend more time on the build and assembly of the actual buggy frame.



The above is a picture of the paper templates i made that will allows us to cut out the overall shape of both the bottom and top acrylic plates.



We cut out the overall shape as shown above.



The above is a drawing i have done to show me hole placements, including the stripboard offset.



This is picture of the acrylic sheets with the holes marked out. They are to be completed by Anand, who will take them home and drill all the holes indicated.
