Re: Musings from a FIRST Inspector

We're a first year time and I'm trying to look ahead and smoothen out a bit of the inspection process. I saw the advice you gave and I appreciate it. Could you give me a little more information on the Bill of Material. What all is required on that? We had some parts custom made by a mentor who works at a steel plant. How do we get those parts on there. Plus once we got some of the steel....we ended up "altering" (aka.....chopping off parts) of some of the custom made pieces. Is all that legal as long as we deburr the metal. While at the places....can you talk to an inspector and have them come look at your robot before you go to official "inspection" to make sure they think it will pass so that....if they don't think it will...you can make some changes. Thanks for the help.
