Sure pilum40, I can send you a PM whenever I update this build log. (If anyone else wants to receive a message when this thing updates, send me a PM.) We're probably going to go with 1-2 geared-down CIM motors for the lifter, depending on the amount of torque needed. We've ordered said screws, but they haven't come yet.

I still can't believe that people are actually following this build. I'm actually quite flattered.

...and now, I must apologize to Peter, for he read the build log and thought that it was inaccurate on several counts:

Dear Peter,

I had no idea that you were reading this thing! It is actually quite unexpected that a member of Team 3807 would be reading Team 3807's build log.

That being said, you were right in the words that you spoke yesterday. Our team likely won't have omni wheels on the front of the robot, or at least that's not currently part of the plan. In addition, the forklift will only extend about two tote-heights in the air, although I thought I made it reasonably clear that the team was mostly decided on that matter. I just wanted to hear what the good people of Chief Delphi had to say about it.

At any rate, I'll try to be a little more accurate in the future. Please keep in mind that I am but a lowly member of the Marketing Team, and thus I may not have the most up-to-date information.

Have a nice day.
