This week we made a lot of progress, we finished the OnShape assembly model and we were able to show where the latches would be. After we completed this step, we then worked on making our first actual box out of wood. We began by marking the pieces on the plywood and cutting out all of the flat surfaces. We were able to produce an entire crate per sheet of plywood, this was good because we had exactly 4 sheets of plywood and needed 4 crates. 

We then cut handles into the side of the crate using this CNC machine. To assemble the box into its desired shape, we used glue and 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch plywood in the corners to support the structure.

By the end of the week, we have 3 crates complete other than the latches, and we are working on completing the last crates.

What we need to do is take our latches (which we now have) and attach them to all 4 crates once the last 1 is assembled.
