If I could have voted for two items it would have definetly have been extreme for both of them. Andy Baker (who is the MAN at doing CAD) draws everything in UG and prints it off to be made. You may have even seen our print book at some of the events in previous years. Another cool thing that Andy does is print off full scale or 1/2 scale prints of assemblies on the robot. I can remember in 2002 when we had an full size print of the drive base and I used it to align the gearboxes. For calculations I'de also have to say we are extreme. Everyone is always doing calculations, and there are 3 engineers on our team that do an extreme amount of it (Andy, Mark, Steve).
