I don't know, on our team, we build a little muscle. Hacksaws are our cutting tool of choice, even though we use newbies for a lot of our manual labor, such as the hacksawing, (gotta learn tool safety/use somehow) veteren members still do a good bit. We also tend to use hammers in our robot contruction quite a bit... Accidents also give a good chance to build muscle, for example, this year we forgot that we would have to reopen a gearbox to grease it the next day, so we put high-strength Loctite on the screws holding it together... we had to get a team member who is a 6'7" black belt to open them.
