Conclusions • Hope to complete by early next week—over production cost of labor and machining • Box tubing was cheap alternative, but not effective to attain dovetail tolerances • Use higher quality of wood and cut more precisely
What we Learned • CNC Machining / Mastercam • How to work in teams • You never are as close to being done as you think you are • You can never ask too many questions
