Project Start

Yesterday was the first day of project work.

Aims for the day were:

• Get a website / blog going


• Get a parts list prepared and authorised


• Start looking into the control of the car

Everything went pretty much to plan, there was a lot of discussion on the parts list as we were not 100% on whether we would be able to purchase items at wholesale prices which had a large impact on our budget. In the end, after speaking to the parts purchasing guy we found that we could get parts at wholesale which gave a lot more buying power.

By the end of the day, parts were ordered, Graham and Jason had also brought components from Jaycar to start building a parallel port breakout box.
