Re: Team 997 Lifter

Same to you 1983,
you guys had an awesome pit (i think you even won an award for its colors?)
and that bot really came together on the first day, I really liked the idea for grabbing tubes then turning them sideways to score. The way your crate held all your tools and had places to hang everything was really a space saver, but did you guys have to pay overages on shipping costs?
BTW your mascot really rocked

Out pistons start out fully contracted when the platform is on the floor, then we have our 1 inch Angle Stock and the .5 inches from the platform material. this gives us a little leeway, just for good measure.
