Thanks everyone! I really enjoyed coming out to Rochester to see everyone and compete in the Vex Tournament!
Just wait until you see some of my other projects I'm working on, including one for Innovation FIRST/Vex Robotics (which I should hopefully be wrapping up later this week; college applications, scholarships, and essays, along with the RCCR robot and tons of school-related activities have eaten up much of my time lately... :-/ ). This one will involve a white paper to build a Genuine Art Dutra-designed Vex Robot using 99% Starter Kit only parts.
Another project of mine at the moment is one in which my father and I are building an off-road (specifically snow) robot at our house, complete with snowmobile tank treads, 80/20 frame, dual CIM AndyMark trannies, 2004 FRC IFI Control System, and with the possibility of several onboard air cannons. Currently, we have most of the 80/20 machined and bolted together for this robot, and are currently awaiting a few more orders from McMaster-Carr and a bunch of CNC'd sheet metal parts for this robot to continue construction. This 'bot will probably be wrapped up around the beginning of the 2007 build season, and will be used to help 228 recruit a
specific sponsor.
