I'm guessing every part on the practice robot was assembled, so none of it was COTS.
I don't even think it matters that you modified the part that was swapped over. If that works, why can't we all bring second robots, grab parts off and drill some holes to modify them, then slap them on the robot and say we "manufactured" them in the pits?

Why does it need to weigh less than 30 lbs? It was bagged before midnight on Tuesday. The are no restrictions on how many spare manufactured parts or extra weight you have in the bags. Where is the difference between building and bagging a spare mechanism in case the first broke?
