=Problem Statement (Finish description)= Mechanism attached to a computer that can open a Masterlock combination lock.

= Conceive = =Design= =Implement= This section focuses on the software.
 * The algorithm or steps to figuring out the combination of a Masterlock manually are well known.
 * Videos exist on how to do this.
 * The goal is to automate this process.
 * This design section here focuses on the mechanical subsystems and electrical components:

=Operate= Operation manual, troubleshooting manual would go here.

=Demo= presentation

=Next Steps=
 * Spin Off Project: Design knob grabber in openSCAD and then print on makerbot so can grab any serrated knob in the future
 * Mount new stepper motor
 * Redo gears so that stepper motor has really small one on it's shaft and really big one on the knob shaft
 * Work on code that tests solenoid, switch and stepper motor, then start doing some reliability testing
 * Find the combination of a lock by hand using one of the internet video's
 * Write receiving processing sketch running on computer and sending arduino sketch that communicate through a USB cable
