There is a inspection station that has among other things, a scale, and a sizing box. The official inspectors are there to help you along the process, and make sure you are safe, and comply to all the rules. You will need your robot's Bill of Materials as well. (Generated by you, accounting for all materials, and costs of the robot.)

Plan on doing this on Thursday as soon as you can.

If yuo don't pass weight/inspection by Friday morning, you may not be able to compete.

Get it done as soon as you can. (I know I repeated that, but it's important.)
