These projects were completed as part of MIT's class 2.70 Fundamentals in Precision Design. The class focused on deterministic design, selection, and assembly of machine elements to create and manufacture a robust precision machine or system. Throughout the semester we completed a series of small projects to explore fundamental principles in teams of 2-3. We designed, built and tested each project to further conceptualize the fundamental principle as a stand-alone exploration.
