Go to Post So yeah, everyone please remember that lathes are one of the most dangerous machine tools you'll encounter. And keep your hand on the chuck key whenever it's in the chuck. If you never let it go till it's out of the chuck, it's stupendously less likely to take flight. - Kevin Sevcik [more]

Re: Check Out The V2 Of Our Elevator For FTC

I like it. How did you solve the lateral stability problem that you encounter with scissor lifts.

Y por curiosidad, que escuela en la Ciudad de Mexico?

Re: Check Out The V2 Of Our Elevator For FTC

Looks good. Be sure to test what happens once you cut power to the motors, i.e. does it fall right back down? FTC scores happen after motion stops, subject to the rules. Double check so you're not disappointed. A simple passive locking lever would work.

We fixed the lateral stability problem with the tetrix structures, and we are from Centro Escolar Cedros in Mexico City, thanks for commenting!
