Re: What's your favorite part of build season?

For me, the best part of build season is always seeing a machine with all systems working together, usually during the last week. To see this thing you slaved over for weeks finally drive and score and do everything it was designed to do makes it all worthwhile.

Prototyping, detailed design, milling, and iteration. Wait, isn't that like pretty much all of build season?

Somehow, it always ends up doing things. I can't for the life of me figure out how though.
