Simmie-Macgregor-AM-Scissor Lift

Today Jorge and I installed and tested the sliders for the scissor lift as well as installing the shaft for the piston. First Jorge and I drilled holes in specific areas of the PVC where the sliders would go. Then we put the zip ties in and tested their sliding capabilities. After we concluded that our system worked we then drilled more holes for the rod that will be connected to the piston that will provide our scissor lift with lift. Our next steps include attaching the pneumatic piston to the main shaft possibly with L brackets and then conducting further testing.
