Re: 1726 progress - week 4

The current plan is to make an improved drivebase, but painting it beforehand. The rest of the wooden parts will likely be painted blue and white as well.

Neat thing about the shooter though: since it's been operated so much, there's a nice little oil streak along the wood in line with the chain. There's also lots of oil marks on it from where we grabbed it with dirty hands... not sure how well paint will stick to it. We could always just build another one, we might actually have enough time this year to make the robot look good.
