Question: what parts do you design

Any parts to do with the satellite/instrument/detector I am working on. For example I’ve designed test setups so that we can test certain parts of the instrument before it is actually put together, as well as parts of the instrument (that hold the detector to the instrument). Another thing is we need to design a way to carry this thing around during all the testing, and even to the satellite it will eventually be mounted on – these things don’t tend to have carry handles because they are too heavy to take to space!
