Re: New robot rules at Peachtree

Frank,
Just when I think I have seen everything, I go to a week one regional and get surprised. When seeing the leg lamp for the first time, I had to ask first "How is it listed on the BOM?" then "How far out of the Frame Perimeter does it extend?" This year I have seen "The Hammer of Thor", eight spring shooters, a 2.5" x 3' pneumatic cylinder with eight tanks. I received a report of a 7.5 gallon tank that takes 30 minutes to fill this past weekend and I have seen just this season, two robots come in at more than 135 lbs.
