Our bot is at a state where you could call it "completed."

We have our kicker built and firing (though the tubing tension will be adjusted at the regional). Our lift arm works great for deploying, and just today we got it actually lifting the robot's weight (took an hour and a half of installing pulleys, but we pulled it off).
The only couple of things we'll have to actually "complete" on the robot when we go to the regional competition will be cutting out larger holes in our polycarb base platform for our washer-wing nut bumper attachment system, and spring-loading our winch "ratcheting"...

And programming our autonomous.
