  • Good news, glue works with strain gauges.  Test was done on left and right palm sensor.  Seemed very responsive.
  • Cables are complete, minus tinning which I can do as I go, and have their strain gauge groups separated.  I will label them as I figure out which one will go with which finger.
  • Attached the bottom strain gauges for the fingers.  By tomorrow the glue should be dry and I will be able to finish the wiring process.
  • With some luck might be done tomorrow minus waiting for protective epoxy to dry.  Epoxy phase will take two days for both sides but if i do the top side first, you should be able to use it to test your code by Wednesday and have it safe to transport be Thursday.
  • The strain gauges on middle post are going to be hard to attach once wiring is complete, but I do not think I can get them on in time to make the Thursday deadline.
