Re: pic: Ship Weekend at Northeastern

Thanks for the Kudos...

As Brandon said it was a tough challenge with 2 weeks left but we couldn't knowingly turn them down.

It was probably the best build season I've had yet, and definately the most challenging. We did our one robot in 6 weeks, helped with another the entire time and then 2 completely from brainstorming to completed and ALL FUNCTIONAL in 2 weeks.

Helping these teams has been fantastic. All of them have great students and amazing teachers. They are the ones that really deserved the credit. We went out to their schools held some brainstorming sessions got their drivetrains running and then came up with some ideas. We polished/detailed them for production in about 2 to 3 intense design days go the parts list and started fabrictaion. A very long week later and we have 4 functional robots and we were ready to get them over to BU for their press conference on time.

It was a long last 2 weeks, don't forget my Thermodynamics, and Dynamics midterms, but its my most memorable one.

Thanks to everyone Northeastern, Brighton High, New Mission High, and Madison Park! You guys are great and I wouldn't change a thing!
