Re: Where to buy custom gearboxes for WCD's

Well, if you don't meet so often, then start meeting more often. Off-season is a wonderful time to do community outreach, test out ideas you don't have time for in regular season, and generally bond with the team. It's a much better time to do bonding in off season rather than when you're stressing over a robot. Back to the topic, use an old gearbox from a past season, meet at someone's house, and just work on learning the gearbox. Then machine some parts for a new custom gearbox. And, of course, put together the new gearbox.
