The boxes aren't shipped with the crate; we bring them up with us via car. (I'm so glad that I made pit crew; it meant that I didn't have to haul those things down to the pits) The robot actually only takes up about half of the crate. The shelves that the boxes are currently sitting on are actually what sections the bot off from a few of the other things that we put in the crate, such as the OI and the bolts that we use to set up the pit. They "snap" in to form a set of sliding doors.


You would be surprised how much of that stuff we ended up using, too...lots of improv happened there...
