Team 73 Defensive Bot (Almost There)

Here's a pic of our 2012 bot. It is almost done, we just have to install chain on one of the wheels, add a kill switch, and a curtain to the front of the bot to help us retain balls.

Our team builds two different bots every year one offensive, one defensive to see which one is better. We haven't decided which one we are going to use.

This bot is a blocker bot so it means we will be trying to stay in front of teams that will be shooting from low to the ground and attempting to catch their balls. We can also catch rebounds as we have an open top. We have an on-board shooter so it means we will be able to catch balls and shoot them across the field for our alliance members to pic up and shoot.

We started working on this bot about 10 days ago. Tell me what you think?
