Re: pic: Team Fusion's T-Shirt Shooting Robot

I accidentally uploaded the picture on my dad's name. Oh well ..

The t-shirt cannon has been great for getting Fusion's name out in the community. It is a simple way to get people asking us about our program. It is sad when some nights the crowd at the football games are cheering more for a shirt than for our team. I think we spent less than $50 on the whole setup.

Right now I'm interested in replacing the PVC storage tank on the back of the robot. I think the most pressure we have shot a shirt at is about 80 or 90 psi, and from what I know the PVC should hold up to about 200-250, but I don't want to take any chances. What do you recommend?

**edit**
The bot is actually our 2004 competition bot.
I'll look around to see if we still have the plans.
