I started a new OnShape CAD Document for the parts and assembly here:

https://cad.onshape.com/documents/d91a95f30dd3844dcfc2804c/w/6f43255d0f5dad638639cf32/e/45c92d8b4a03edc246f1764e

I remade all the PVC pipes and connectors so that we have the freedom to change them in the future (rather than just imports). I went off the dimensions that they had, but if they are different or need to be changed I can fix them no problem

I am putting together the assemblies now and should be done soon. This is just the PVC pipe and connectors, no joystick, motors, etc. yet.

My next task will be to start getting all the other parts down to the screws holding it together. I know we would like the CAD as accurate as possible so I will start modeling these pieces as accurate as possible, dimensions would help if anyone had any drawings or specs sheets for the pieces.

Looks great!  Can you add my OnShape user to the project?  I'm not sure how to do that - I think you should be able to look me up or add the "Robomakery" team.

Thanks, Dylan

Sure, let me know if that worked. Should give you access to do everything in there. Still figure out all the little nuances of the program, but once I do I can put something together for everyone (as was asked of me last meeting) so we all know how to access it and create versions so we don't save over work that's already been done.

Great, I am throwing together some of the other parts now, but the data sheets are pretty poor as far as dimensions go.. I am going to do my best with what is there, but I'll make them so they are easy to change once I have the real parts in hand. A few dimension tweaks.

Can we add the current electronics box?  I do not know the dimensions.

Sure, let's just collect all the dimensions of everything we want on there. I am out the next two weekends, but next time we meet up I can get some calipers to the current model and get everything in. Or anyone with access to it can take some measurements and send them to me and I am happy to CAD them up.
