All our hand tools (and a Dremel) were brought in by students, and they need to go back... Our mentor brought in his drill press for us to use, we didn't have access to a mill nor a lathe... Mentor's brother works in/owns a shop, so we had our frame welded there. The only thing we used that belonged to the school were rooms, A/V carts, and goggles.

We long for the day that we get access to a CNC mill, a lathe, and a welder. (A plasma cutting torch would make me happy, too...) However, we're trying to get the school to give us three dedicated computers right now.

Mmm... building bots the old fashioned way.
