Testing

Since this project was manufacturing based, the tests consisted of efficiencies of time and material. To test time, the process was simply ran entirely, with a lap function on a stopwatch to show how much time was used on each component. The first test run had many issues with the CNC mill. Settings on the machine caused to 7 scrapped parts. The settings were fixed for the second test and only 3 scrapped parts were made due to operator error. 

​

Material efficiency was simply tested by weighing the raw stock and comparing it to the weight of the finished product. This results in a percent yield metric.
