Teaser #1

Excuse the lack of shoes, pants, and safety wear, but this thing showed up when we checked in for Robotics.
I still cant figure out how we got it through the door. :ahh:

The teaser is easy That's a gearbox for something moving really fast, probably a shooter wheel.

I have no clue what the heck that other picture is.

I do. It is a "machine". Used for (what else?) "Machining".

And I am envious, indeed.

By the size and shape, I'd guess either a mill or a CNC machine. (Could be both.)

As for the teaser, I'll go with Vikesrock.

For the second pic, none of the above.
But, the Poofs, Holy Cows, and Pink Team are sure to have access to one of these!
We got tired of spending $500/season to outsource it, and that doesnt include all of the stuff we did with a smaller version of this.

Since there's another picture in that directory called "powder", I'm going to guess it's a powder coating oven?

if not, some machine tool.
