May 8, 2019 - Assembling the track

After extensively working all of last week, the weekend, and the few days before the meeting, we are almost finished with the track assembly. Most of our aluminum rails have been bent with the track bender now working as intended. Thursday we plan on finishing the switch sections before presentations on Monday.

Some problems we ran into were leveling the track and curves that were too long and therefore needed to be cut down. Some spaces of the track still need adjustment since the bogey does get caught between a wedge or a gap between the switch sections. Most of these issues will be fixed in the coming week when we fine-tune our track for the Spartan Superway exhibition on May 18.
