Test plan for 10/25/13:
Phase 1 - blade non-pass through (meaning blades do not cross one another yet) tests using hold-down. Goal: robust shearing of 1"x6" flat slabs of mild steel.
- Theoretical angle of blade upon touchdown of pivot end: 1/12
- Measured angle, to 1/16 height accuracy at both blade end separation distances
Cutting tests
Non-Pass Through
- 1/4"x2"
- 1/2"x2" up to 1/2"x6"
- 1" rebar
- 1x2 to 1"x6" -
Pass through Cutting Tests
1. 1/2x7 - 1/2"x12"
Limit tests
1"x7" and up - feasibility of whih is determined during testing
