145 is D-O-N-E
 
It is such a relief to be done. Our bumpers are also done, they are where PINK (ewwwwwwww). Now they are black.









Can't wait for the Finger Lake Regionals. On saturday we broke a few things like the part that connects the flippers to the pneumatics, so we made them from steel. The lift had a few probs and we fixed them also. It's a little hard to turn, but we font that when we are moving it turns A LOT better.

Looks pretty sweet. What are those little suction cup things are what ever they are for? Some kind of stabalization when hurdling. Se you at Finger Lakes.

suction cups???? Do you mean the flaps on the top? Those are to give up more area to his the ball with when we hurdle. Also they make it so the ball shoots off the one side if we hit it right.

Re: 145 is D-O-N-E
 
no not those. there looks like there are two arms that come out on the bottom. looks like a couple of 3/4 inch pistons are hooked up to them letting them come in and out of the robot and two more to push it up and down. thought it was some sort of stabalization thing or something.

Re: 145 is D-O-N-E
 
Ah they are used to help herd the ball around. They are kinda cool and could take someone leg off if you hit someone with them.

Where did you get that pneumaic tubing? We have been trying to figure out the best way to run our tubing up our lift, and self-coiling seems that it would be the best way.

Re: 145 is D-O-N-E
 
We coiled it our selfs, all you need is a large heat shrink gun and a PVC pipe.

Re: 145 is D-O-N-E
 
Does that seem to work well, or does it get caught up in stuff?

It works well imo.

Re: 145 is D-O-N-E
 
If you're using square or round stock for your arm you can run the tubing through it.

Or you can use the ever-versatile zip ties.
