Team 869 In Need of Some Advice

Hey guys, so here's the story. Our machine shop from prior years is not going to be able to help us this year with our robot. Although our team is hard at work trying to find a replacement shop, the possibility of not having a shop this year is growing bigger and bigger. I am just wondering if any of you guys would have any good bits of advice as to certain design tips. Basically any advice that would help out a team whom does not have a metal shop at their highschool, and only has access to hand tools, some power tools, as well as a bandsaw and drill press, both capable pf cutting wood and aluminum. Also, any materials that are easy to modify with such tools, but do not require cnc milling to become usful. Sorry about the poor grammer but everyone is starting to panic a bit. Hopefully someone out there can point us in the right direction. Any input would be greatly appreciated!
