Go to Post Legend has it that Brandon installs the server in a bulletproof case shortly before Kickoff. That way, when the server explodes, the damage to surrounding things is minimal. - Billfred [more]

Could you explain how you use ABS? Team 422 uses aluminum C channel, Angle, and 80/20 for almost everything, and I would be interested to hear about what different materials teams use, and how. I also spent a lot of time talking to 1829 about their use of carbon fiber at the Virginia Regional, so my interest in odd build materials can be considered piqued.
