Re: Pit Design and the Pit-In-A-Box

This idea is one that drove our pit re-design as well. In 2012 we had a very aesthetically pleasing pit that we took with us to the Palmetto Regional, but after qualifying for Championship - we realized it was just too big to take on that long trip. The newly designed pit for this year completely un-folds flat (except for the shelf system we built for the front corner) and can actually be carried by one or two team members. In Baltimore this year we set it up with four students in less than ten minutes - and I think it played a significant part in our Imagery Award at that event. The corners are corrugated vinyl the connecting structure is 1/2" conduit wrapped in pink duct tape.
