Most commonly I wind up with 7/16ths wrenches and teal T handles. Most expensive is probably the pair of victors that wound up at my house over the summer.

I usually end up donating more stuff to our shop than I remove...

The day you realize that you accidentally left 2 and a half swerve modules in your back pack. When you forgot to unload the cargo at the meeting. For those that don't know those things don't run cheap.

I never thought that someone would bring up swerve modules. There isn't much that can top that.

While I was a student one of our mentors forgot an 8" wheel in his pocket. we were searching that wheel for hours until he noticed it in his home.

Someone on the electrical team thought it would be funny to put the old cRIO in their backpack for some reason last year when we were cleaning up. I'm sure he just wanted to play minecraft on it or something.

Seconded. Most of the stuff in there was formerly mine. Now it's "ours."

Amen. "Our" height gauge, several computers, a monitor and about 3 pairs of harbor freight calipers.

The only thing that is coming with me after I graduate this year is the height gauge. The team puts everything else to better use than I ever could.

One of our students has gotten in trouble with her mom after some pop rivets made their way through the washing machine. Twice. :)

You'd be surprised. I accidentally brought home one of our solid aluminum milled swerve modules from the 2011-12 offseason once. Upon realizing that we were never going to actually build them, it's stayed on my desk as a paperweight (and let me tell you, it is one cool paperweight!).

One of our team members took one of our two joysticks home after the competition last year probably to test something on it. He forgot to get it back. We realized we were missing it six months later when we decided to drive our base around during open house.

I took this year's game piece home for testing over a weekend when the school was closed to us. The following Monday, our team spent 15 minutes looking for the ball.

After that we made a rule banning the removal of critical things no matter how valuable the "testing"

I've got half of our 2001 robot in my trunk, our only bot with treads. Are we counting added value for antiques?

A computer. We were flashing O-Droid XUs and I put one that wasn't being worked in my pocket so it wouldn't get stepped on and I got home and realized I still had it.
