: : Per Team Update #1:

: : All fabrication must cease once the robot is shipped to the first event. You may bring raw material to the event and resume fabrication after check-in.

: 1) You can also bring replacement parts that were fabricated before you shipped.

: 2) As written, I would interpret it that you can also have fabrication start back at home for improved parts. These could either be brought/shipped to the competition in progress

So far I believe you are in compliance with the new rules.

: or installed at the next competition since they were fabricated before you shipped once again. Does this sound correct?

I interpret your question as asking if the parts can be fabricated somewhere other than the competition site during the course of the competition.

The way I read rule M20, it requires any fabrication after the first robot ship to occur on-site at a competition:

'Off-the-shelf materials may be purchased **and brought to the event site.**
Fabrication may resume once you have checked in at an event site on Thursday.'

However, it may just be that FIRST never considered the situation you are asking about.
