Re: Team organization issues and Build Season Schedule

Quote:
In 2010, our entire robot was made by manually milling parts with an inexperienced first year robotics student milling the kicker and the base was made of 1010 cut by an old slave and tapped by some students. By championships, the base was tilting at a 30 degree angle and would've completely been destroyed in another few matches.
We use a vertical bandsaw, not an old slave. Because slavery is illegal, and immoral.

But seriously, these are good points and a good direction to head towards for the upcoming season.
