Re: How do you know when to CAD vs draw up on paper quickly

It was only two days ago in which I finished up the CAD of the elevator and shooter on 228's robot. However, the chassis and ball intake were completed over two weeks ago. The date in which the CAD has to be done is entirely dependent on how fast you can fabricate parts and how many revisions you want to go through before you shoot the designers and build it.

Because I was slow on the last bit of the CAD, now I get to spend all my free time running parts on the CNC mill.
