Today was the first official work day of build week 2 for the TechTigers. The [as of now] final claw prototype has been developed, the current design incorporating both old and new ideas.

As the robot design is basically finalized, the materials for its construction have been ordered and will be arriving in the near future. Until then, the design and build team have been working on updating the Inventor files to the newest robot design, as well as working out the robot build schedule for when the materials arrive.
