Re: FRC Build Season Workshop Resources

Well 1745 is at the other end of the FRC sprctrum.

we have
a broken drill press(you can still use it just have to put 2x4s under the plate)
a hack saw
a band saw(its broken now but it will be fixed by jan)
a table saw
a chop saw
a ball ping hammer
a belt sander/grinding wheel
a 9.25"X9.25" 3 axis CNC mill(any shape possible . . . as long as its plywood and not over 3/4 inches thick)
2 corded drills
1 cordless drill( we found it on the side of the road while driving down t0 Houston)
a ratchet set
a hand screwdriver set

and the best tool of all hardworking dedicated young minds.


basically to have a functioning FRC team you only need the last item. cause with that you can get alot of hand tools from parents, and with some creative thinking thats all you NEED(maybe not all you want).

If at first it doesn't work, use a hammer.
If that doesn't work, use a bigger hammer.
