Update on gears!

Figuring out a precise system of gears is goign to be difficult, but I'm goign to deal with this isue before anything else. I've made some prototypes that don't work all that well, but they're better than nothing! Here tthey are:

Blinds Project

New project! Working with the blindsssss. Attempting to have the blinds in the engineering room move up and down with the lights. Not sure if I'm going to tie it into the same circuit as the lights yet, but only time will tell haha.
This should prove to be quite challenging because I have to focus on both the mechanical aspect of the project and the electrical/ programming. Its going to require a series of gears and the arduino board I have to be programmed. Hoping for a positive result, we'll see how it goes!
