Scotch Yoke

For this design, similar to the Geneva mechanism, I started by looking at data sheets to see what I needed to do. One of the best ones I found was this one. While it was not incredibly insightful it did help me understand how the mechanism works and that image there helped me understand what the components would end up being.

I am proud to say that for this design, I did not follow a tutorial, and while that might seem like a bad thing, to design it on my own to try and design it without any previous design to work off of, I want to clairify this was my first mechanism I made and I did not know at the time that we could follow tutorials. Even then, though, I feel this design looks good:

I originally was unaware that a simulation was done in the design tab of Fusion360, so when it came time to simulate the design, I went to the animate tab and made a not-too-bad animation for the yoke, and while I did eventually make the simulation, I am still going to show off my animation skills:
