Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #408

Last year we used advice from an FTC guy, so this year we've called in an FLL expert to help with the drive train. We won't be using the Lego plastic gears, but this guy has gearing ratios down solid.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #408

Hey,
When you design the robot so that only little fingers can get in to work on it, someone has to find little fingers. We are just darn lucky I found this guy and he has been trained by the best. Let this be a reminder for next year. JT is growing up fast and he won't be able to do this for us again next year.

Hey Winnovation, if you let that robot fall on his fingers, you'll never be selected for 16's alliance!
