These items are then hand-carried to a competition event by the team. The OPERATOR CONSOLE is automatically included in the WITHHOLDING ALLOWANCE. Beyond that, the incoming material maximums specified in Rule <R38> limits the amount of FABRICATED ITEMS included in the WITHHOLDING ALLOWANCE.
I read Section 8 as well and am very familiar with the rules in that section (I am my team's rules expert), but I was confused by the portion I bolded above. I thought an actual list of sorts would be specified in Section 4, but reading the line again, I see that the parenthetical text was referring to the shipping requirements.

Thanks!
