Manufacturing update

We were not happy with the way the acrylic side plates turned out so we are now  remaking them. There was too much friction between the plates and the wheel axles so we have redesigned the plates to account for the problem.

A problem with the laser cutter caused us to ruin our acrylic plate so we traded for another and are currently in the process of cutting new side plates. We are also printing out Decepticon's body simultaneously. Upon completion of this print we will have Decepticon's pieces done.

Autobot's aluminum side plates also need to be adjusted slightly to better place the roller at the correct height.
