Re: Never Do This, and Other Good Ideas Gone Bad
1075's no-no's are:

NO SET SCREWS (too many things have slipped in the past)
NO POTENTIOMETERS (code runs away and busts them, alleviated by using a 10turn pot, or encoder.)
NO BEVEL/MITER GEARS (this stems from our rookie year where we used one cantilevered on the end of a 4" shaft, which shredded, and cost us the 2003 Canadian Regional because we couldn't play in the finals, because the gears were toast)
