Setbacks + Slowing Progress

Starting the week I found out about an annoying setback in my project. I found out that I built my prototype wrong, and I now have to rebuild the parts that were built wrong before. More specifically I built the fingers wrong. This is a huge setback because the fingers were the hardest parts to put together, and they took me around two school weeks to finish them. Even though failing allows me to learn, these setbacks have been making me feel as if I have been wasting my time and that I might not be able to finish what I have expected by the end of the school year.
Besides taking a step back with my project, I am still trying to make progress and I feel that I will be done with the prototype (again) this weekend and start working with the metal so that I can meet my goals for this month, by the end of the month.
