Anyone who has been to a regional that our team attended knows that we put out a newsletter each day of competition. We plan on doing the same at the Championship. However, we would like to publish one on Thursday too. At each regional we compiled a list of machinery that each team brought and was willing to share with others. What I am asking in this thread is for teams to list what equipment they will be bringing (and willing to share) and what division you are in. The equipment we list usually are bigger things like mini-lathes, drill presses, sheet metal brakes, etc. so please don't respond with "we are bringing 2 hammers and a cordless drill", because those will not show up on our list.

We are trying to get this published before we even arrive in Houston, so teams can benefit from this info on Thursday.

Our team (247) Will be bringing our semi trailer, aka "the machine shop on wheels" Anybody who went to the Midwest Regional should know about it. It's a giant trailer that says PICO on the side of it, with lots of noise going on inside of it. Name a tool, and it should be in there :).
