Re: GRIZZLY TOOLS
The 4 major tools the team is look at.
G9742 Band saw
G0621x Vertical band saw
G4000 Lathe
G0759 Mill
We have been give a large grant to change a home economics room to a robotics lab. The grant will need to provide for a complete redesign. That being said we could spend $10-$15,000 on needed equipment. We will be taking out 3 of the 4 stoves in the room so 220 volts is available. We hope to complete the project for the beginning of the 2016 school year.
We are a high school of 84 students in eastern Washington state. We are a FFA team well supported by the high school administration and teachers. Grizzly has a location in Washington state and we like supporting local. We would like them to become a supporter of FIRST.
We also understand our rookie season starts 1 week from today. We have been installing a supply of Vex pro build materials. So our most pressing need would be the band saw.
