Hey guys,

I'm the head of hardware for Team 5052 this year, and we are a fourth year team. Most of the original first-year team members left last year, so I'm having trouble figuring out ways to teach the newer members. Our team size has grown significantly in the past year, and almost all
of the members in hardware have little to no experience. My goal is to prepare them before build season starts.

I have to teach around 20-25 people, but unfortunately our resources are very limited right now. We have a small amount of spare metal to work with, a drill press, a band saw, and several kits of VEX parts. We also have two test robots to teach electronics, and one of the classrooms at our school has a room full of computers with Autodesk Inventor. I want to be able to teach basic design, mechanical skills, CAD, and electronics, but I'm not quite sure where to start given the few resources we have. Any suggestions?

Thanks so much in advance.
