I worked for six hours and finally got the mechanism to work and completed 90% of the 3d model

• I finally got most of the 3d modeling done and did some test prints with the new food safe filament I got

• I did some testing with the mechanism and I confirmed that the mechanism does work (I think)

• I started the first print today and hopefully it works 🤞(it’s ten hours long)

Today I stared on my first project, an automated cat feeder.

• At first I thought of making the dispensing mechanism was just a door that opened and closed but the problem with that was it wasn’t precise enough and would likely get jammed. So I went for a different approach, a rotating wheel that could dispense the cat food in measurable increments.

• I also did all the measurements for the dimensions of the cat feeder so everything would fit in place.

• I also did a lot of research on food safe filaments and what kinds of motors to get to make the product actually function.

I am really happy with the work I got done today and hopefully by the next devlog I will have the majority of the mechanism working.
