Like anything else in FIRST, using specialized hardware (the PDB) requires learning and mentoring. Since I lead the wiring team, I make sure to show the students the proper method before letting them hurt themselves (possible) or break our parts or tools.

"Just do it" is a recipe for broken hearts and broken hardware. It fosters creativity and learning, absolutely, but at the cost of safety and time/money/resources.
