Re: Update #16

HI Guys,

I think in general, people MAY be overreacting to this. When I read the update, my interpretation is this: If you want drill presses, bandsaws, mini-lathes etc. at an event, they must be in a mobile machine shop that is FIRST approved.

Granted the update does not detail what is involved in getting a machine shop approved. I don't see this as an attempt to ban machine shops and tools, jut to control them.

I could be very wrong, but before we jump all over FIRST for taking our bandsaws away, lets see what their Mobile machine shop approval procedure is.

Anyone have any insight into this?

Thanks,

RAZ
