Alex and I worked on the robot more this weekend, then again today.

On Saturday, we built the frame. The materials had arrived on Wednesday, but our busy schedules prevented us from doing anything with them until Saturday. The pictures from the Saturday session are here - robot_02 . Here's a sample:

Then, today, we wired both servos, and mounted the Arduino on the frame. The pictures are here - robot_02b .

I ordered wheels today from Robot Objects. The wheels I am getting (WHL-SBGMPW) fit right onto a Futaba servo, so we won't need to do anything special to use them. Those should arrive by Friday, and since I won't be at work that day due to the Thanksgiving holiday break, we should be able to mount them on the robot, and make it drive around that same day. Hopefully the holiday won't delay the delivery. I'll be tracking it just in case.

Once the wheels are on, we'll need to start doing some programming, and thinking about sensors.
