Click on the yellow 2012 Build Season Video button near the
bottom of the page

For some reason you must go to the websiteand then click on the Yellow Build Season Video... the direct link does not work

Sorry for the hassle.

[Ty Tremblay]

The website is forbidden

[Bob Steele]

Not for most... I am accessing it from my home computer right now.

Perhaps your school or business has some kind of filter.
I can assure you that we access it from our school all of the time...

Can you tell me more? what software filters are you using?

[Grim Tuesday]

Forbidden for me too (accessing from a home computer in Ithaca NY)

[EricLeifermann]

I'm on my computer at home using Firefox and i can't get the link to work...

[Andrew Lawrence]

Y U NO let me see it? :confused:

[jblay]

Interesting robot design. I've always wondered about making our robot a 403 forbidden machine. Hope it works out

[Bob Steele]

Not sure why this is happening.

Bob,
congratulations once again for building a successful robot and for running a great all-around program.
I like this video as one of the better ones as it truly depicts the teamwork involved in all areas of your program.
Acknowledging even the volunteers who help feed the kids was great.

Whether they build the robot or provide meals, every volunteer is equally important to the foundation of any team......
Thanks for sharing.

Another awesome robot from 1983. You are my favorite north west team and I always look forward to seeing your robots in action.

[Bob Steele]

Thanks Glenn and everyone else.

Skunkworks Robotics is a family...the video shows a little part of it.
It was a tough year...

We lost a week to ice snow and no power at the school..
Had several team members and mentors out sick..

but we have made it this far...
Like all the teams out there... we are already winners...
We have grown together again as a team and continue to strive to uphold and teach the values of FIRST. The competitions are just the frosting on our cake.

See you all on the field!!

Looks great! We'll see you in Oregon!

Thanks for the comment. We have many great robots here in the NorthWest.

We are happy to be among teams like 2046, 488, 360, 2557, 1540, 1425, 2471, 2122, and many,many others in Washington, Oregon and Idaho.

You need to come out and play with us sometime!!

Good luck on the field and everywhere else this year!

[Darren Collins]

That's a beautiful robot. I am looking forward to seeing it in action next week in Portland. I have always admired the fit and finish of your robots.

Darren, We look forward to being on the floor again with you guys. Your robot looks terrific!! Maybe this year we can finally pull a repeat of the regional win from back in 2008 in Seattle (Tacoma). I think we could team up for a triple balance in Portland.... we are very short on the bridge... 22" or so...

[Thad House]

I really hope you can do the triple balance because our coach has a bet running on it. Both 1510 and 2898 will be rooting for the triple balance.

We have the capability if we can get help... we can extend over the end of the bridge by 10" because of our drive base. Our robot is only 32 " long to begin with so we are pretty short if we can be an end robot..

We look forward to playing with you guys!! You always have a great robot.
See you in about a day or so!!

[Keefe2471]

Nice design this year, as usual. Your robot is always one of the most polished in the northwest, the center of gravity of your robot giving the ability to stay on while having 10" of you robot off the edge is very interesting. We went with serves this year so can climb in both long and short modes. GL we will see you in Portland.

P.S. Thanks for the mention above :)
