🚀 Update on the Manufacturing Phase!

🛠️ We’ve officially entered the manufacturing phase of our rover build! Huge thanks to our manufacturing leads, Ben and the team, for guiding members through machining and assembly, and to The Creator Space for providing the equipment and technical support that make it all possible. ⚙️✨

🔧 Technical Highlights:
• CNC machining of aluminium linkages and motor mounts for our rover’s suspension system is well underway.
• A massive thank you to The Creator Space for supporting our process through:
 – Design reviews 🧠
 – Validation and verification ✅
 – Access to CNC machines for production ⚙️
• Shoutout to for training our members in CNC machining and sharing his expertise! 🙌

Stay tuned as the rover starts to take shape one machined part at a time. ✨
