Thanks for all of the kind words.

This year we tried to make the assemblies easy to remove. We tried to make it as clean as possible. There will still be some cleaning up of a few things on the first Thursday at the competition. We will probably be putting on a few shields and such but all in all its pretty much done.

We put the robot on the left in the crate last night and will finish the one on the right tonight. We basically have been building both of them at the same time, with the practice robot always being ahead by a few days. We used what we learned on the practice robot and applied it onto the competition robot when that section came up. It was nice to be able to work on all of the assemblies separate and then put them all together.

Most of the robot was done in CAD or Inventor before we started. We all planned for the spaces we wanted and worked out the details.

Anthony will have to answer about the output gearing the numbers escape me right now.

I can't wait to see all of the robots in person. See you all soon
