Re: Want to sell a robot?

Thanks to all that responded. I basically posted this for my husband who is an Engineer and wanting a robot. Someone's robot that they were no longer using would be fine- he can figure anything out. I do agree with one of the previous posts that this may not be the case for a lot of people- especially when using someone else's work but in our case it would be fine. I would have to check and see what all he needs. I posted as a generality to see if anyone would consider selling.

He is wanting to work on some software and hardware ideas he has and needs a robot to do this. Maybe borrowing one would be a great alternative if we could find someone willing to let us borrow one. I know we can take home our team robot home- but not sure they would let him keep it long enough to do his work- as he does have a full-time job outside of our team.

We may actually be buying the kit and building our own so he can work to his own schedule. I sure appreciate everyone's ideas and emails.
I agree a lot of teams may not want to part with their robot as they become a part of their family, some teams may for funding for other things. I think each team is different.

Thanks everyone. I will send more info when I find what he is looking for exactly.
