Mark,

I re-read your initial post thinking I might have responded harshly. Nowhere in that post did you ask for help. Since you are an advocate of constructive criticism, I will give you some of my own.

In your initial post, you could have just asked for the dimensions and specs. I would have been the first to respond with the answer. Instead, you took "pot shots" at the individuals who provided the parts. Now I know that sometimes words on paper don't come out quite like intended, so I will just chalk this up as a misunderstanding.

I will assume that you have good intentions and want to improve FIRST for not only your students, but all the students touched by this competition. If you have any other questions or concerns about the transmission, feel free to ask.
