GCODe Mini Assembly
Our iGEM Hardware Outreach involved talking to professor, PhD students, undergraduates and random IISc visitors across field ranging from optics to electronics to pathology. We learned many useful things, some of which appear on our Hardware Evolution page and understood what a difference GCODe would make.
Once we were done writing up the documentation for the GCODe Mini, we needed to know how easy it would be for someone else to build. Sure, the documentation looked complete to us, but that's because we already knew how to build it! There would definitely be lots of little things that seemed obvious to us, but would leave anyone else confused. There was only one way to find out - make someone build it! We invited Arpit Behera, a college freshman at IISc, to build the Mini from the instructions you see on the wiki.
We gave Arpit all the parts he needed, laser-cut and soldered, and a link to our Construction Manual.
He managed to build the GCODe Mini in less than two hours!
Although this was extremely gratifying, Arpit did have lots of feedback for us on where he found the manual difficult to understand, and which parts could be improved further. This helped us make the manual for the Mini much more comprehensive and user-friendly.
Assembling a device of this complexity is always a tedious and frustrating task, but the Mini Construction Manual made it a lot easier! Getting to use the revised version would have been even better! - Arpit
