Work with the team to build the claw for the robot and revise the CAD models. This will help me achieve my teamwork goal.

In the last week of the month reflect on your progress.
I wasn’t able to achieve this month's goal. Although the Claw is built, it doesn't work very efficiently. We only realized this during drive practice at Kitnersville on the last Saturday of February. We didn’t have enough time to redesign and reassemble the claw.
I learnt that some problems are bound to happen. In this specific case, there was no way for us to know the claw would malfunction. I'm most proud of the fact that we were able to bounce back so quickly and redesign the claw.
To redesign the claw, I had to work with members of the mechanical and machining team. This has helped me become closer to my teammates and has helped me get closer to reaching my teamwork goal.
