80/20 Inc.

[Trish Fisher]

Thank you everyone for your comments, suggestions and ideas!!!! I will get some 80/20 and look at some of the other materials you all have suggested.

This will hopefully get us through the first year. Right now we have 18 interested students and only 5 have done FIRST before for which 2 are programmers, and in the "building team" 2 have 1 year experience and 1 has 3 yrs exp. I hope to have everyone prototyping immediately and try to get some depth with knowledge and fabrication experience as soon as possible. I'm hoping for "Fail sooner to succeed sooner"... a slogan used by IDEO

If anyone else has ideas on how you used it that would benefit this young team, please let me know.

Thanks again for your help, the FIRST Community is the best ever!
