Aaah...I see you've moved the hydraulic press :)

Re: pic: Prototype robot -1018 - RoboDevils
 

Yes we did Caleb to stop certain people that will remain nameless from aimless crushing things with it for no apparent reason...

Hope you guys are doing well in West Lafayette
we miss you ... well ok we sort of miss you...
errrrrrrrrrr well we miss some of you...

ok ok ok

Good luck this year

Well, of course you miss me! :-)
Hehe, just kidding! I miss all of you a lot, too! Caleb, Eric, and I have been reminiscing about last year's regionals (memories that we won't forget, for certain...). It is disappointing that we won't be attending a regional together this year. I'm sure it would have been great to hang out again and to introduce some future Boilermakers to our team!
I will try to visit when I can - so far this semester it has been difficult to find time to do much of anything but homework, unfortunately.
And, speaking of, time to get back to my projects. Hope to see you guys soon!

-Hillary

(Btw...future Purdue people...if you have any questions about Purdue, feel free to ask me! And, a word of advice: sign up to participate in Boiler Gold Rush! It is a GREAT time and well worth the effort! [plus, you get to move in a week early] )

Hey Caleb (and Hilary, and Eric),

How are ya' guys?
Thought you could write us some software for this thing. Its supposed to tap into a wormhole, create a huge vacuum, suck the double scoring balls of ALL regionals in, and effectively multiply our score by about 8 million - got any ideas?

Stef, da crazy Kraut engineer ;-)

Hey, Stef...Can we have one of HURCO's CNC mills? PLEASE?!?!?

Re: pic: Prototype robot -1018 - RoboDevils
 

Sure ... if we get stashes of dollars in return :cool:
I'd be happy to drive it up to you guys - my way LOL

Re: pic: Prototype robot -1018 - RoboDevils
 

I sure am glad I didn't have to experiance "your" way...

I'd prolly start to drivew even worse.

And it's not funny, we did tell stef that he needs to do all that by saturday.

BENTHOS!

Re: pic: Prototype robot -1018 - RoboDevils
 

As long as your driving is better than your typing, Ben ... :D

By the way - could you get hold of that flux generator I asked you to get? I'm sure we have enough protoplasma by now, but the wupsicity of the magotron core causes me some troubled thoughts ...

Stef,
Yeah, drive up here "your" way...just call before you leave, and I'll see you 15 minutes later. lol
Ah, good memories! =D
I don't think Caleb has the ability to give you any of the team's money. That is MY area of control, lol.

-Hillary

Re: pic: Prototype robot -1018 - RoboDevils
 

Hillary, you seem to have stayed the same ;-) Did your cough get better? LOL

Yes, last year was a lot of fun. Especially the ride back from Chicago stayed in memory - after all the frustration we went through at those regionals, I was close to bail out for this year - but remembering the fun times made it all worth while again. And I have not been disappointed so far :-) Same headbanging, sure, but it is fun!

Are you guys going to any regionals? I'll most likely make it to Cleveland, but St. Louis isn't possible for me ...

Stef

Re: pic: Prototype robot -1018 - RoboDevils
 

I like how stef drives :)

Re: pic: Prototype robot -1018 - RoboDevils
 

Stef,
We will be attending the Great Lakes Regional, Northwest Regional, and Nationals. None of the same as the wonderful RoboDevils =\ But, maybe sometime before the first regional, you guys could come visit. Actually, Purdue's Spring Break starts March 12, so we'll be home for the entire next week. We'll try to set some time to visit one weekend night when you guys will be packing, planning, and prepairing for regionals.
My cough seemed to get better soon after the season was over...weird! lol
Do you remember this: "Hey look, there are the TecnoKats! Wait...that's not them!!" ?

-Hillary

Re: pic: Prototype robot -1018 - RoboDevils
 

Well, I bet those people still wonder who the heck came up to them, honked, laughed, looked, looked puzzled, and the sped off ... :D Thanks for reminding me, Hillary - that certainly was a classical moment!
By the way - let Eric know I'm eternally greatfull for his dad fixing the TIG welder. It became my favourite tool this season :)
Looking forward to meeting you guys in March. And best luck to you guys and your team!

Stef

Re: pic: Prototype robot -1018 - RoboDevils
 

I still crack up every time I think about those poor people in the van. :D
Glad to hear that the welders are providing entertainment.
I saw the pics of the bot tonight...man that thing is beutiful...almost makes me wanna cry. :) Too bad I have to wait till IRI to see it in action.
