Re: Bungy and Surgical tubing

I would think that the GDC has seen the discussion here and is talking over the issue as we speak/read. They and certainly the inspection team are concerned for the welfare of the participants and the volunteers. Safety is our most important product. (I stole that but I can't remember who to give credit to.) Expect that UL safety people will be consulted at your events if in the opinion of an inspector, the part seems to operating in an unsafe manner.

<R02> ROBOT parts shall not be made from hazardous materials, be unsafe, or cause an unsafe condition.
