Family Build Journal · First Public Mission

Robotic Cat Toilet Build

Matt and his daughter are building a 3D-printed robotic cat toilet together. This family build journal is the public journey: visible progress every day, the construction, the experiments, the mistakes, the fixes, and the things learned along the way.

Current status

3D printed parts are complete. Assembly is underway. The first real photo update will establish the starting point.

Build ingredients

Mechanical assembly, printed parts, electronics, soldering, coding, testing, and practical cat-safe design thinking.

Story style

Family build journal, not a sterile instruction manual — what happened, what we learned, and what comes next.

Project page started

This page is ready for the first real photo drop. The first update should document the printed parts, what is already assembled, what components are involved, and the next build step.

What Chewie needs with each batch

Chewie now has a reusable update template ready, so daily photo drops can quickly become both private build notes and a public story entry with visible progress every day.
