Sorry

Teams may not climb on the PYRAMID.

Violation: YELLOW CARD

:rolleyes:

We cannot confirm, since we do not know the zone touched sequence for this climb. Wouldn't have passed inspection anyway. There are no places to attach belaying caribiners for lowering.

Finally found Waldo. This is a great way to start the season.

Nice job!

I see you opted against scoring the colored discs after your ascent :p

What did you guys use to build this pyramid? I'm having trouble finding the material to build it with that isn't too costly.

As per the "Team Drawings" documents on FRC-manuals, it should be wood and black iron pipe. Expect to spend $300-400.


For the Actual pyramid, we are using black iron pipe and wood for the pyramid goal.

Hi,
We followed the low cost field drawings, found all the materials at my favorite place that loves to steal my money. Home Depot. Pipe clamps, plywood, Black pipe.

Were you able to find them in the right size? Cause I've been looking online and can't find anything :/

What can't you find?
The pipe clamps or the pipe it self?

For pipes, try a Lowe's or Home Depot. They should have them in stock. Call them if you can't find it on the internet.

Unfortuantly the Home Depot and Lowes in my area dont carry any pipe near the correct size. The only thing I could find was some fence post pipe possibly. I dont know if they stock based on regions and we dont have that much need, but most the pipe in black and steel is 1inch or smaller.

Any plumbing supply place, it's a very common pipe, I use it at work for high pressure steam. Home Depot is good for certain things, also you have to beat other local teams to the popular stores.-(sorry Brooklyn teams, you can come over and play anytime, PM me if you want to have a play date)

Due to the discrepancies in size (OD 1.660 on the iron pipe vs OD 1.500 on the steel tubing), we are building the official pyramid. That is, we are going to weld together the field version.
