There is one part of the rules that says you cannot use the Fix-It window to produce upgrade parts and another that says you can
I think the first fix-it window is different than the rest. The first you can only make replacement parts only, the rest allow upgrades.

As to taking parts home, I think it is allowed BUT you can only bring 25 lbs of non-COTs stuff back into the next competition.

I may have it wrong, but that is my understanding/interpretation as of now.
