SHAD UBC!  2019 Prototyping!!!

Part A – Hand Tools

Part 1 – Learn tools by making these pieces:

Part 2 – Make a flexible finger

Part 3 – Making simple hinges from sheet metal:

Part 4 – Making a servo motor mount

Part B – Electronics 

     1. Pick up a kit

•  List of all things in the Electronics Kit here.
• Note the risks to your personal laptops when working with the Arduino boards here (pdf)
• Your first time working with programming or looking at code?   Look here for some starter advice:
  • Modifying existing Arduino programs [ladyada.net]

2.  Watch and do the following videos:
