Did students who came to watch the event bring bearings with them? I remember seeing a few members of 271, presumably scouting teams going to FLR and SBPLI, as well as get ideas first hand for the game.

One of our chains came off in the qualifications match we lost and 271's mentors and students came to help out. We were pretty sure we had a spare but one of the students pulled several bearings out of his pocket which we were able to use.

Haha, yes we were just scouting and helping a few teams out. One of our students discovered on the train that he had walked out of the shop with a few new bearings in his pocket, which of course we joked about needing to find a use for them, and well we did!

Congratulations to all the teams, it was great getting to see our friends and make some new ones too!
