Spare Parts Table

I worked the Spare Parts table at the VCU regional for more hours than I wish to count, so let me give you guys some info about that situation.

Except for hardware (nuts, bolts, screws, set screws, etc) if it wasn't in the kit, Spare Parts doesn't have it. This means no sprockets, no shafts, no collars, no plate, no angle brackets, no tape...the list goes on. If you think you might need any additional hardware list stuff, make sure you look up the hardware stores near your regional.

Hopefully this will cut down on the number of times the Spare Parts volunteers have to sadly shake their head no when you ask for a part we don't have.

How about batteries? One of ours may be toast (we haven't been able to test it), and we were unable to find a replacement before we had to ship.

Nope, Sorry

No spare batteries. We did get some spare battery chargers halfway through Friday, but I don't know if those will be available at all competitions.
