Hi all. I remember a while ago people were talking about how experienced teams should be helping out others... Well, seems like that idea is spreading between west coast teams, and WRRF held the first of a series of workshops for rookie teams or any others who want to brush up their materials. The workshops included robot physics, and choosing the proper tools... and the future ones include "choosing the right motors" and "3D Studio Max"... So, with that in mind, here is the question of the week...
QUESTION 10/21/01: What robotics-related workshops do you think are great for preping up teams out there for the competition (either ones you want to take them yourself or ones you see being valuable to less-than-experienced teams)?
This seems like pretty helpful to get a few more presentation into the white papers section of this web page... I am certainly thinking about adding my own "choosing the right motors for dummies" into that great collection...
Or maybe just a little one about turning 3 ft 2" dia. solid steel down to a 5 in. 0.2511 inch dia. rod...
Have fun,

P.S. I am open to suggestions of any questions you want as the "QUESTION OF THE WEEK!!!"... So e-mail me at
