Body is ready to build

After taking Tuesday off for test studying and Portland traveling we are back at the MakerBot. We had to wait for a couple meetings before assembling the body because we needed to make this MakerBot stand out a bit, so Nathan spray painted the outside of the body, twice, with gold and then finished it off with a clear coat. All in all the body looks really snazzy and today we are going to start actually putting it together. So far in the construction there hasn't been anything extremely difficult in our path. I think the real troubles will come when we need to start building the pieces like the extruder which has many intricate parts. I believe we will get the body completed today and then begin looking at the extruder.
