Go to Post In my opinion, the hardest part of the competition is not that actual manufacture of the robot, but the design process. It is the enginners that go through the design process all the time that will have the edge in this competition, not the best machinist. - Wetzel [more]

Anyway, long story short, we cut out the bladder from the ball, and about an hour's worth of duct taping later , we have our very own bladderball. It only holds air for about half an hour, but that's half an hour of bizzare fun.

The leak was really about a 6-inch long slash in the bladder, so it took several layers of tape to get it even this good. It is currently in our crate awaiting our arrival in Seattle.
hm.. i guess i'll have to join in on the fun out there.. and bring my friend that sings the duct tape song (- http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...&threadid=2697 -) to drive you all insane whilst you play with said "bladderball".. not to mention the fact that half of everyone there will prolly want to join in on the fun.

what better way to drive university students insane than having a girl sing a very annoying song (funny to me though) and having high school kids goofing off on university turf?
