This week has been filled with some challenges.  I am in a computer modeling class that is very fun, yet very demanding.  The theme of the assignment was learning how to offset datum planes at various angles relative to given ones.  One of the parts that I drew was a three-lobed cutter.  It looks really neat.
I had to order a programmer for my robot this week also.  I searched among major electronics distributors such as Digi-Key, Mouser,and Arrow and surprisingly enough, none of them had it in stock.  After searching over the internet, I finally found it at a company by the name of Dontronics.  Much to my utter amazement, this company is located in Australia.  With no other alternatives to which to turn, I ordered the programmer from them last Thursday and it just arrived at my house today.  Now, I can continue on my robot which is to be completed by the end of April.
