Team 5's crate doubled as our "work-bench" too! We just lifted the top box, made of aluminum, and there was the robot. 2 years ago, it just fit in there perfectly, with 2 straps. Last year, we had to get our robot in there a little diaginal with, I think, 4 straps to help hold it down. The bottom box was made out of aluminum w/ go-cart wheels, so when we raced down to the playing field from doing our last modifications in the pit, and we had 2 doors, pad-locked. We could fit ALL our tools, labtops, personal items (clothes, food, cameras, etc...) so we didn't have anything stoled.
If u are near our pit, and u need to store something, just ask us!! (Well, at-least me...)
The picture was taken when we won the Motrola Quality Award, Sarah, our 2nd in charge driver, is holding it in front. I am the dork behind the robot, in-between the arms...
