Re: Never Do This, and Other Good Ideas Gone Bad
On 397 the running joke for NEVER DO THIS was giving the Schreiber brothers access to gas shocks. I would like it noted that no one was ever seriously hurt despite dealing with 1000lbs of force...
NEVER make absolutes in an engineering discussion.
(ignoring the first one)
Never rely on gut feeling, check the numbers or don't build it.
Never trust an engineer to do the numbers right the first time, have a couple people look at the numbers.
"If you need slip rings in FRC you are probably over complicating it" - said by 397's old lead mentor. Totally true for our team.
