Importing Files (McMasterCarr, Pistons, Screws)

The MVRT Parts Library contains a lot of the parts that are commonly used for an FRC robot such as screws, bearings, motors, etc. But sometimes, parts required for a specific application are just not on the parts library, such as a unique size of a screw, special bearings, etc. CAD files for pistons are also not in the parts library, so in order to add these files to your CAD models, you need to download them off a website and then import them into your model. Additionally with pistons, whilst it's not required, it's a good idea to allow the piston to move like it would in real life, in order to check for possible collisions and interference. The first video will cover importing files from McMasterCarr, followed by a video covering how to convert these piston files into moving assemblies.
