no one quite knows way the team started this, but for years we have been asking for stuff like these ...

Left handed metric wrench(s).
( doesn't really come from one place, it's just a tool joke )

Self Sealing Stem Bolts,
( Star Trek Deep Space Nine )

Knibbler Pins,
( no idea, it's just a thing. )

19/16ths left hand threaded bolt
( again, no idea. It just happened )

20Kw DC electromagnets
( another, "why?... How?!," it's just a thing some kids thought up )

50ft of Coaxial cable.
( seemed like a thing to do at the time. )

a MOAB
( that was remembered the year after by an official )

Someone asked for their Dungeon Master, a players hand book,
their "Gee EM". A "Dee twenty ". ( several of us had them on hand ! )

A cup holder for the robot.
( it needed coffee ! )

We asked for Saw dust ( for the radioactive Hamsters,
Rumored to be living in our robot... As a power source ).
That joke got us suuuuuuch a looking over by the judges and safety people.

crystalized Dilithium.
( reverse the words... )
