Re: How big is your workspace?

Sometimes the best option is to go off school property and rent somewhere else.
With an increase in sponsorship we might be able to afford that. But does taking the students and doing work off school grounds change the liability (if not insurance) concerns for your team? I could see my administration being concerned in that respect.

you still have your old robots? why would u keep them?
The one robot we have kept whole is our Aim High bot, and we keep it for its demo appeal. We do at least 2 street fairs and Relay for Life each year in addition to school open houses, etc. and we'd like to have more robots to show off. It's also better to be able to touch, control, and look underneath the old robots that worked well rather than only have some gallery pics.

Never give way to laziness, either...Work done with anxiety about results is far inferior to work done without such anxiety, in the calm of self-surrender...They who work selfishly for results are miserable." -- from the Bhagavad Gita, quoted in Educating Esmé
