Our team has been doing practice and preseason challenges to get ready for the 2014 season. One problem we've been running into during our design process is the fact that many, myself included, love to design and prototype by putting metal together. Our mentor reminds us that using time on activities such as drawing, CADing, and simple planning saves soooo much time.
Maybe, instead of telling us your whole design process, you could try to drive home the engineering method, of analysis, planning, prototyping, building, fixing, and such.
On the other hand, thanks for doing Ri3d last year. You made what was a big and daunting rookie year into something I'll remember for the rest of my life.
