Tilt Assembly (tentative assembly)

We have put together the pieces of the tilt assembly. Overall the build quality is better than expected. The links match up to the CAD model orientation and angles. It can be balanced to stay static which is surprising. See Figure 1 and 2. We also received shaft collars so we will be able to assemble it tomorrow to further revise its operation. Once the waterjet cutter is used to cut the platform plates that hold the scissor lift together we can assemble that together with the tilt assembly.

The next challenge is to incorporate the motor into the tilt assembly. The Mechatronics team will need to work closely with us to get a solution completed by Maker Faire.
