Today, I was able to finish machining to motor to gear attachment part by heading in early in the morning to work on a mill before the seniors got to the machine shop. Afterwards, I cut the previously 3D printed parts, as we will be trying to put them in a machine to be ground up and re-extruded as filament.
Theo was also able to make the bike tire-to-dynamo connecting gear/wheel. It is comprised of two of the gears we ordered in a set mounted on an axle and then sprayed with a rubber material. It took about 10 coats, but the final product should nicely interact with the tire of the bike in the way we need it to.
