I'm hoping this means you're gonna stay 100% legal to every rule to make Honest Abe happy! :D

I want to say you guys are going with tank treads, because of the belt sander. Your not going under the tunnel, Abe goes above the tunnelish structure created by the overhang of the belt sander.

P.S. yes I am bored

That hat looks like it could be hiding a nice little suction system.

The belt sander leads me to think of a similar ball intake and possible shooter as their 2008 robot.

I know exactly what this means!

I'm more looking at the ball's proximity to the belt. Hmmmmmm. That lip looks about 3 inches to me.

The belt sander leads me to think of a similar ball intake and possible shooter as their 2008 robot.

I was thinking the same thing. And knowing their 2008 robot, that would be really competitive.

Well Disney recently released their new Lincoln Figure (http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2009/11/blog-exclusive-first-video-of-the-most-sophisticated-audio-animatronics-technology-yet-abraham-lincoln/) for Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln featuring a fully electric head. This allowed Imagineers to expand the facial capabilities and improve the realism.

So your going to be using a fully electric robot.

Loosly designed from the thing that cleans the Lincoln Tunnel?

Well, they are from the Land of Lincoln.

But why would they put Abe between a belt sander and a bandsaw?

I'm going have to go with the using suction idea. The vacuum in the background seems to conspicuously placed to ignore...

Or maybe I'm reading way too much into it. :yikes:
