Week Goal:
=Power Cube Tasks=
*Day 1: Power Cube Tested, 1 tank welded, 1 set of arms mounted, PC 2 Completed
 
**<s>Buy 2 starter switches</s>
See [[Power Cube Documentation]]
**<s>Buy 3 more 5-gallon tanks of hydraulic fluid</s>
**Buy remaining cylinders, hydraulic pumps and fittings, and power beyond fittings
**Check on bandsaw blades -LMH
**Test lathe for drilling, facing off, and fitting 2 fittings together
**Torch out wheel mount plates
**Torch wheel gussets - Thad
**<s>Weld wheel gussets to collars - Thad after Marcin</s>
**Get 4-set of wheels ready
**Cut wheel chain to length
**Figure out shaft design detail for couplers
**Mount 1 set of loader arms


*Day 2:
**Assumptions - motor mount plates need to be marked.
**Risk Recovery Plan - have Chris specify and draw the mounting plates - as a priority.
**Have somebody else do the gas filler holes
