I don't know about you, but MY mill has hand cranks. Loose hand cranks. It's fun! You can sit there spinning the thing and maybe read a few chapters of your english homework before it gets through all the slop (by the way, that’s my secret to not having grades decline during this project). And then once you start moving the thing you get that upper body workout as an extra. Good stuff, that.

Can I have your shop?? Please????

Oh well, we make do.

This year we were not afforded the luxury of a mechanical engineer on our team.
Instead we used another fine design tool: pencil and paper, combined with good old fashioned imagination.
The result: a robot that can do every task(well), and was number two seed by tie breaker in Hartford.
Moral of the story: CAD is great, imagination is awesome!

In the past I think we've tried to use CAD to design our whole robot, but we've run out of time and haven't gotten the robot built in time and have always been working frantically in the pits trying to get it done. This year we used CAD a little bit. Just a 2-D drawing of the side view of our 'bot and the puck. Good thing we've got our ME that's working with us on a total volunteer basis (seeing as he's unemployed and all) because if we didn't have him, we wouldn't have known that if we'd tried getting up on the puck with our original design, it wouldn't have worked. We would've gotten stuck because our back end would have been 2' into the ground, well according to the CAD drawing. So, we fixed our design so we wouldn't be stuck. We hadn't even thought of this problem before we'd put in on CAD. Over the summer I'm hoping to learn CAD a bit better than I know it now. From what I'm hearing it will really help in the design of the robot. And it might be good seeing as though I'm going into engineering and all...
