The Mech Techs are a big fan of "Measure once, cut twice." Our electrocube was supposed to be 4 in x 10 in x 10 in... it's currently 6 in x 12 in x 12 in and we barely fit everything in. We actually have a "top 10" list of engineering slogans on the back of our team shirts:
If at FIRST you don't succeed...
...use more velcro
...recharge the batteries
...bolt it down tighter
...blame programming (booo... hisssss)
...two words: more power
...try weight loss by DeWalt
...screw it in the OTHER way
(The last three are not engineering related)
