Re: Enough buying talk. Let's hear about ghettofab!

well, our '02 and '03 bots were entirely ghetto. But last year we had about 3 days to ship, and we had no idea how to attach the flapper (think of a vaccume agitator)(SP and wrong term, but work with me). It was just some rubber strips screwed to a pvc tube. We were using the window motor to power it, we just got PC11, a high strength epoxy and glued to stupid thing on. It worked well for the 2 times we used it.

This year... ELECTRICAL TAPE!!!
