Lol very festive.

Is that a timing belt pulley in the tree?:D

I love your "Holiday Shrub"

This is another photo of the top of the tree. It is an annual tradition with the team and they outdid themselves this year. You can find all sorts of things, like timing belt pulleys, on this tree. Even a pompom or two.

Awesome tree, Jane!

Happy Holidays!

That's one use for the 2007 game piece that I've never seen (or considered) before! Love your tree; hope Santa brings more robot parts and geek treats!:)

And do I see some BEST robotics 2007 games pieces under the tree.

Re: pic: LASA Robotics Tree Skirt
 

Yes, those were the game pieces for the 2007 BEST challenge.
Funny story, our manipulator picked up the bottles. There were not enough caps for the bottles and we had to make our own. After making a few, we borrowed an idea from a Capitol BEST hub team, WATCH, and made 'caps' out of unfinished drawer pulls/knobs for practice. They worked.

Man, a tree in your shop? I'm green with envy. :)

Good pun, Billfred!

The Frankentree (that is the tree's name) is located in our teacher's Scitech classroom in a corner. The wood shop and metal shop are across the hall from the classroom. During build, the entire area is a hub of activity.

Nice original use of the tube! That's a very good tradition that I'm sure you guys enjoy each year. Kudos, and Merry Christmas!!! :)

The photo shows a red ringer. If it were a blue ringer, would the plant be a "Hanukkah bush"?? ;)

On second thought, maybe we need an entirely new designation for a decorative robotics tree... something about a bushing?

Re: pic: LASA Robotics Tree Skirt
 

It looks great Jane....thanks for Planting the idea!

Re: pic: LASA Robotics Tree Skirt
 

Well after Billfred's pun I can only asked....

Jane, what did the team get on the FIRST day of Christmas? :rolleyes:

A CNC mill in a pear tree?
