At the risk of turning this into an "inspectors war stories" thread, we had a robot ant an event once that was >160 pounds and made entirely of steel and angle iron. RIs will do what it takes to get that team legal and playing, hopefully before their first match. This particular case was a saws-all and a good judge of how short to make the robot to get 40+ pounds off.

Seriously, we need an inspection war stories thread, so I made one here
