Did you get your team number laser etched in?
The team number was waterjetted in.

EDIT: I think I can spot a window motor too! What the heck!?!? Care to fill us in?
Yes, I believe they are coupled directly. This is for the base or the arm to move up and down. Yes, that is an end mill, because we ran out of shaft. Whatever works. Yes, you do see a window motor as well, that powers a joint further up in the arm. All will be answered at the SCRRF sectional.

I'm not quite sure if that's right, but I'm almost positive that it is.
