We have access to 2 laser cutters at one our mentor's work, and we are allowed to use them on weekends for large jobs. If its just small things that just need to be done quickly, he can make them before/after work.

This year we used it to create our daisies, parts of wrist, our arm actuators, and drivetrain sprockets.

Also, the car wash scrubber was our original inspiration for the design. And, as you can tell, you aren't the only one to pick up on that.
