Paul Copioli, myself, and the ThunderChickens think that CAD is really important, especially for the students to learn. It's a valuable tool in explaining the design and finding potential problems before actually building anything. In 2005, most of the designing and part and assembly drawings were done by students, which we're very proud of. I only assume that they've taken it to the next level this year?
