'''2. Training for the Operation of CNC Machines'''
I continued working closely with Alan Chasse in the UConn Physics Machine Shop, and together we machined and constructed the new gluing apparatus. We began work on the base plate, but by the end of the semester all of the necessary parts for this had yet to be obtained, so our CNC work was delayed. Plans for machining the top plate are in the works for as soon as the base plate is done.
Working with CNC machines is something that I have wanted to learn, so I really enjoyed getting to use them directly this semester. I hope to continue doing work like this for my project in the future.
The primary machine that I used was a Bridgeport Milling Machine.
