Challenges

Never thought i would rage quite while i'm building something interesting, my potato(Yeah that's the name of my laptop) was like a heater when i was using CAD Software, i literally tried 5 software checking which worked the smoothest and none worked then shifted too browser based onshape tool which at the end atleast worked properly. Time to change my potato 😂
