The machines you design and build **don't need to be complicated** - try to de-risk ideas early, and do stuff that "works right away" rather than complex projects that require hundreds of details to come together all at once in order to work. This can be fun; have fun.

## Rec 1
- bring each example axis
- bring the blot
- bring one kit
- image of each thing / notes on hardware
- past years' work ...
- other resources
... should be ...
- what you'll have to do,
- mechanism,
- actuation,
- automation,
- what this normally involves, architecturally ?
- it's the mess, but don't scare them ?
- what are some fun ideas for machines we can build ?
- scale can be small (remember you're going to bring the thing to class)
- it can be simple (remember you have only a week!)
- what are some good resources ?
- we have prepared some,
- incld. machine class content, of which... meche,
- incld. our example axes, etc,
- others have,
- slocum, ...
- open builds ?
- what you should do:
- elect a Machine Dictator (you can deploy democratic process internally, we want to have one point person)
- have them contact Jake (WhatsApp) (617 230 0791) (jake.read@cba.mit.edu)
- and Quentin
- convene a meeting to decide:
- what to build, who to do what, when to work together, etc,
- invite us to the first meeting,
- we will bring you your kit of stuff to that first meeting
## Rec 2
... a walkthrough of some nuts-and-bolts demos,
- the xylophone,
- requires a representation of the plan (the sequencer)
- and an interface to it,
- requires some planning (when can we hit... what?)
- requires some actuation,
- and mechanical design...
- the scara-arm
- ... requires some kinematics, etc,
- the resources are, broadly,
- modules (of which any arduino project can become one such)
- mechanical bits and bops
- adjoints
- the extrusions use slide-in nuts,
- we commonly print 4.4mm hole to self-thread an M5,
- more beef wants hex inserts
