Re: Students as fabricators

We have a team of 80ish students, but our Robot Ops division (ones who work on the robot itself) are around 30 students. The tools we have in our shop are lathes, a mill, band saws, drill presses, welding stations, plasma cutter and a CNC mill. Since we build everything in-house, all of our R.O. students need to know our basic tools (drill press,band saw, sanders, etc). There isn't a single part on our robot that isn't mostly or completely student built.

Estimates:
Lathe(10), Mill(10), Band Saws(30), Drill Presses(30), Welding Station(2), Plasma Cutter(2), CNC Mill(2)
