definitely the most bullet-proof robot we have ever made. And not to disappoint, it is indeed totally constructed from wood, from the rollers to the chassis.
The belt system was designed from the ground up to have the belt speed be the same as the firing speed, causing the balls to move at extreme velocities though the entire system, and making for a very rapid reload and firing cycle. this allowed our robot to play a "running and gunning" strategy that worked effectively throughout the Lone Star qualifiers
