Re: End of week 4!

Where has the time gone? My team is almost done with our first robot--and we are starting machining the second one tomorrow.

This might be remembered as our Charles Dickens year. We certainly came into the season with Great Expectations, but have been experiencing a sort of dichotomy in our progress. It is the Best of Times: the first robot is almost done, a really strong team, and were not looking overweight, but somehow things seem to be at there Worst: we've barely started our robot, tremendous amounts of money have been spent, and we don't even know that our shooter design works. We seem to be missing both David (our mill mentor) and Copper (well, bronze bushings) when we seem to need them most.

Punning aside, I think we are in a really great place at week four.
