Do we just need to post a cad on here? Should we avoid building a functional prototype?
If you plan on using whatever you build in the offseason directly on your robot, a picture of the prototype or a CAD drawing should be acceptable. If you are just building something to try things, but know it will not be an actual part of your robot, then there's no need (although I'm sure chief Delphi wouldn't mind seeing your work!)
