Week 1 recap

So for most of you, the troubles may be the time it takes to cad the robot before build or the trouble of the oh so horrible task of putting the water-jet cut piece of metal through a sanding machine but what is 2460's holdup?

Having a place to build. A couple days before the kickoff our principal condemned the old bus shed which has been converted to our shop for 6 years now. The building is condemned and was scheduled to be torn down on the 15th. The robotics team spent the first week gathering all of our parts, equipment ( what others would call "side tools" ), 4 FRC bots and 5-6 Electric cars. Where did we put them? All over the place, from the schools auto-shop (again, what others would call a storage shed) to the schools actual tractor shed, leaving all of our stuff exposed to nature and our lovely high school peers.

Another little holdup is in the kop and funding. I know every school has funding problems, and I can clearly see that by their shops , so i'll leave that bit out. In our kop we had numerous parts that were factory cut, but the ends. Meaning that some of our andymark chassis connectors are smaller than the others, but no biggie we'll just.... steal from previous bots.

Other than that. we have a half completed chassis and some rough sketches of bots that might of might not work, how is your season starting off?


Goodluck to all
