Any other ideas out there?

Do tell...

Joe,

We had such a good experience with 80/20 this year that we often joked about selling Bobcat kits . It prompted me to wonder if there could be a "Building with 80/20 (or other extrusions)" component to the ChiefDelphi Rookie clinic that you folks put on. It is not unrealistic to think that three or four people could assemble a functional drive base in a couple of hours (while the rest of the clinic was running). It would really drive home the advantages of using 80/20 and get those rookies thinking about putting together something drivable ASAP.
