'06 - Frankencat is but a frame and wheels and probably drives 20x better now than it ever did at a competition. We've scrapped many a part from it. It is the single most powerful symbol on display in our classroom -- we won Rookie All-Stars in Atlanta and the bot serves as a constant reminder that this whole program isn't about the bot.

'07 - M-Cat is mostly functional, minus some electronic debug issues. The ramps were signed by 90% of the teams who climbed them. There's too much sentimental value to the team to ever sell this bot, though we may scrap non-ramp components for future bots/projects.

'08 - We will probably never scrap anything from PAWS. It was the most technically challenging and overall successful bot we've built to date. In a year or two, we'd probably be willing to "sell" the robot to a sponsor for them to display, as it is definitely an eye-catcher.

Now, forget bots that are for sale...

What about all of these nifty carts and battery totes I saw in Atlanta? This summer's CAD workshops we will design our own versions, but it'd be awesome to get designs for the things we don't have time to get to.
