Hi Mike,

Thanks for joining today - the assignment is on the MicroTrac traction tracks.

Please see Gary's prior work on it:

http://opensourceecology.org/wiki/Gary_Log_-_April_2013#Wednesday_April_17_2013

See Points 1-4.

Please study the several links there.

The concept is there for the tracks - but the file with Gary's tracks is not there. Gary, please send us the file and update your log with it.

Further notes on MicroTrac are here - http://opensourceecology.org/wiki/Microtractor

The old one was a one wheeler, but that didn't have enough traction.

Here are my thoughts. (1) You finish the tracks. (2) Inquire with your 3D printer friend what file format you need to print the tracks. (3) Export your tracks in that file format in sections. (4) Print a large number of these tracks - to make a complete track. Either have the tracks snap together, or use some pins to put them together - just as a scale model.

Thanks, Marcin
