This is our team finishing up the robot. Notice the time stamp? We finished it about 45 mins before the shipping company showed up.

Looking forward to competing @ Manchester.

do you have more photos?

from the front it looks like a fireplace insert :c)

I see something of an arm there?

does it have a way to herd the small balls?

those ball grabbers are great

you could bolt a couple skill saw blades on those in the pit area, and tell people they are 'kill saws'

I can just see them running for the inspectors "They got kill saws! Kill saws!!!" :ahh:

Do you mean the piston that moves the gripper mechanism or the piston you can see that moves the arm up and down? If you mean the one that moves the gripper, then you are correct. If you mean the one that moves the whole arm don't worry, there is a matching one that is hidden behind my leg.
