Are those handles for safely picking up the robot I spy?

Very nice! Also, kudos to the name. The cheese + black pearl reference is very fitting. Happy 10 year anniversary!!

I can't wait to see Yarg in person at VCU :]

Thanks dude!
it's been a crazy first year making the transition from Pack Leader of the Junkyard dogs (http://goochlandrobotics.com/) to Head Cheese of Blue Cheese (http://www.bluecheese1086.org/), but i think our first 6 weeks have been rather successful.

Take a look at what we accomplished (http://www.flickr.com/photos/wilsonmw04/6781457234/) this week! Got the shooter dialed in. Two weeks to get the rest done.

Our shooter works that well (in theory... :rolleyes: ).

Psyched to see it in action in three weeks. Much better than Week 6 last year, but still too long.

Are you guys using 6 inch AndyMark Performance Wheels? I can't remember.

The wheels are actually 8 inch Plactions. We were planning on going the Performance Wheel route but they were out of stock when we went to order them and to keep progressing we decided to go with the Plactions which were back in stock a week earlier.
