We learned a lot trying to climb last year. We spent so much time getting that to work, we couldn't shoot. That cost us a lot of autonomous points. (although our 1-point goal autonomous dumper did win at least one match)

One other point I forgot to make, all the parts were made on a manual mill and manual lathe. So we should be able do all the machining in the school's machine shop. Our team has taken a lot of pride in having the students do the fabricating, and we are lucky to have a good machine shop at the school.
