Re: Near-death experiences or injuries during build season?

I remember my sophomore year when I hooked up the battery to the PD board backwards using alligator clips; the wires from the battery were the wrong color. When I turned my back to grab the laptop and start programming the new cRio, the wires were smoking and the insulation melted onto the frame before I could detach it and prevent a possible fire in a room full of combustible marching band uniforms.
