Yeah, I recently discovered that one. Well, we are doing custom gearbox and chassis and wheel hubs. We always have, but this year we are way behind.
So my answer to "how far is your robot" is probably still "what robot?"
We have a frame welded. We have lots of shooter and turret parts machined, we have lots (but not all) gearbox parts machined. And we have a conveyor prototype and a basket prototype. The basket, delivery system, and conveyor have not started real production yet. Hopefully we'll finish gearboxes tomorrow. We'll see. We have nothing assembled yet for the real thing except our welded frame.
