Re: paper: Electrical Tips Handout

I would add
Secure all wires - Make sure to secure all wires so they don't wander around the robot. Loose wires will tend to make screws come loose, and the darn PWM cables will always end up in the wrong place at the wrong time (durint a match) and cause a great amount of Magic Smoke. Also, loose wire will give an opportunity for another robot's parts to become entangled within the veins of your robot and rip them out, causing your robot to die.
