• Tap the lego part in with a hammer.• The lego part can be cut to size later depending
on the size of the wheels you use.

• The above is a picture of the motor attached to the wheel.• Some hot glue can be put into the coupler to attach it to the
motor• Note how the lego part is cut to size.

The circuit board (and outer case) can be attached using Foamex. Superglue foamex onto the front panel where the respective holes will be. In the case of the foamex pieces for the outer case, they should be 3mm from the edge. Use 3mm self taping screws.

Insert the LDRs through the 1mm holes. Superglue them in place and then solder them to their respective cables.
Solderless LED holders can also be used if available. This also removes the need for Superglue.

The motors should be glued in using the hot glue gun. Make sure the wheels fit inside the 100 x 100 mm box.
Some masking tape can be wrapped around each motor to protect the connections and stop them from touching.
