Re: Past Year's Fields - Team Versions

Our team built "Rack" from Rack and Roll, it was a thing of beauty. Shout out to Ernie Schwenk who built the game elements my first years.

Field elements for FRC was one of the things that impressed me, could the elements team build the field faster than the robot team? In the early days of counting pennies, it hurt to visit Home Depot to drop $500 on wood to build something that had a 8 week life.

I loved the DTEngineering post (summary) "It took two of us about five hours in a well-equipped wood shop to slice up all the parts, and a couple hours for teams of students to assemble them." I follow Jason, and read that to mean "it's material for a small house, and even with Tab A into Slot B it was still a two day adventure".
