@Ethan Cronier (Deactivated)	Ported over some stuff from the google drive Timeline created End effector can pick up a 2kg weight with a moment load	Final Gripper redesign and motor selection Distribute tasks Put hard deadline for motor components in mid-October in timeline Need to add section for midterms/finals on timeline
@Former user (Deleted)	Finished drawings for end effector connection part Started machining end effector connection part Switching to software/firmware, tying up any loose ends	Going to Waterloo on Friday to finish machining end effector connection part (and if time allows, the other two parts)
@Austin Tailon Huang (Deactivated)		Need to check with SKF for arm turntable bearing They have a good offering but they size and mass isn't applicable to our bot, plans to look into it Check into Kaydon Bearings Fix mechanical issues with A2/A4
@Olabisi Sanusi (Deactivated)		Talk to @Former user (Deleted) and @Former user (Deleted) to create new brushless motor mount CAD
Ali		Talk to @Former user (Deleted) /continue work on arm prototype control system

BLDC motor test rig
New mechanical training needs to be tested
Build code for arm prototype; hopefully by the end of next month, assigned Ali/Medina
Find someone to lead each mechanical project (science, ebox)
- Science mechanism - ??
- E-box mechanism - Olabisi
Need to check if the team codes for SOLIDWORKS work; they probably don't right now. As of right now, the MME codes are being used, but that cannot continue as non-MME students may need access as well
Need more storage bins in bay/better fastener organization;
- Not enough places to put fasteners
