You're further ahead than my team was last year. We realized about this time that our design did not fit in the 72x72 box (somehow we overlooked that rule) and had to throw it out and redesign...

This year, we currently have shipments coming in soon from AM (mostly drive components: wheels, idlers, two speeds, sprockets), and some stuff from McMaster (mostly electrical parts, plus some aluminum angle for axle mounts). Our goal is to assemble the drive system by early next week (maybe by the end of the weekend, depending on shipping times). Our [mechanism] design is currently in prototyping, and if it performs well, it will be built pretty quickly in the next couple of weeks (it isn't very complicated).

Programming hasn't started yet, but I hope to get that moving either this weekend or early next week.
