MARS-Rainfall-Sampler

A daily/monthly autonomous rainfall sampler for isotope research

Instructions for construction are being put together here: https://cartesiancreations.dozuki.com/Guide/Guide+to+build+the+MARS+rainfall+sampler./1

If you're interested in helping, there are several things that should be improved. In particular:

1. A way to resolve the memory effect associated with the tipping bucket. Either a way to tip the bucket manually after a certain amount of time, or a way to remove the bucket entirely.
2. A more secure method of joining the vent and inlet hoses (when using the inlet tube method).
3. A better motor option for the main gear. The little stepper has done well so far, but something with a bit more power would be useful to make sure the turntable and platter never miss steps. Caveat - can't use much more power.
