The way that we have done it the last few years is begin building the practice bot first. This way we can see major flaws early enough that we can fix them for the competition robot. We try to have the practice robot fully done by no later than 4.5 weeks, but the week 4 mark is the goal. This gives you enough time to work with the practice robot and see flaws and things to change and then assembly of the competition robot goes relatively quickly.
