Speed Limit 45? Baker that is waaayy to slow for this game! :)

I'd tell you it's a nice looking robot but it looks like you've prepared it for a little rain! Care to share some real pics?

See you at the comps!

A few members from team 45 made it over to Muncie for a 6-team scrimmage last Sunday. We transported our robot, "ham tray", in the back of my truck. Since it was raining, we made a tarp and saran wrap cocoon for it. This picture was taken at the end of the day, as we were ready to leave.

The rest of the team was home in Kokomo, either working on the backup robot or resting from a long day on Saturday.

Thanks to team 1720, PhyXt Gears, for hosting a great event.

Ham Tray? Is this a pig farmer thing or a pig latin thing?

Re: pic: Team 45 and their robot.
 

The students named the robot. It's a long story. One of them should explain.

If the TechnoKats have a ham tray in their pit, I believe several volunteers will be stopping by for a visit. :)

looks like something Arefin might've helped with...

Hmmmm....business idea....custom covers for FIRST robots. Use team colored fabric and embroider their name/logo/number on it. I like it!!

Care to add another product to the AndyMark lineup? :)

Re: pic: Team 45 and their robot.
 

nice robot. Hope it works well for you, although the colors clash with the shirts.
Care to post any of the specs?
:p

Where was this product in 2005? 116 could have used it at a certain offseason event. :p

Psst....Andy and team 45, you guys didn't get the memo that it's not a water game this year:D . Sorry I couldn't resist and I'm surprised nobody beat me to it. I'm sure whatever is under that tarp is a high quality Technokat machine Good Luck!

Shush you...
we weren't the only ones who got a little wet...we just got the wettest. :rolleyes:

The shirts say "Ft/S" also you just can't see it =].

"Ham Tray" comes from and Andy Baker story. When we were deciding on the design of our robot Andy decided to tell us a college story. He talked about how he was in a Frat and the meetings always lasted way longer than what they should. If I remeber right there was a guy that was in charge of punlic affairs or something like that, and he went on and one about a ham tray at one of the meetings. After that any time someone wanted to stop a certain discussion in the metting, they said "Ham Tray" and that was the end of it. After Baker told us this story we started using it during our meetings. When we were trying to come up with a robot name that somehow snuck its way onto the board of ideas, and it won.

Is your robot inside that yellow thing?

Re: pic: Team 45 and their robot.
