Re: FRC Cribs

A few note worthy things about the workshop:

2 weeks before kickoff we were informed we cannot work at the school (due to the time constraints, only 8 hours a week max - not enough)

work benches were built the Thursday and Friday before kickoff

organization plans were made around the same time.

we only really have about 5 students and a handful of mentors who are all in collage

we had to move out right after bag, (the video was shot right before tear down)

we had 24/7 access and some students and mentors really took advantage of that (joe basically lived there)

we only had 3 cad computers (2 thinkpad w530's belonging to joe and i)(and a students desktop crazy gaming thing)

some how we built that on less than a 2k budget
