Re: Is powder coating and annodizing worthwhile?
I don't think that Starman's post was meant to be accusatory. I'd guess that his comment that some robots "look like [they were] built by adults off in a shop somewhere else and [were]n't really 'kid-built'" is referring to fabrication (machining), which many teams do 'outsource.' And that isn't bad - in fact, I'd say it's something to aspire to, as it allows students to focus more on the design and problem solving aspects of the competition, rather than just drilling holes.
I for one am trying to find a sheet metal shop to sponsor our team, which would result in adults rather than students doing much of the machining. |
