Re: Team 95 2017 Build Thread
Started off with a minor disaster. We had a hex bearing come in with the hex bore not concentric, visibly, with the outer race. Very weird to diagnose.
Moving on... parts! Parts are getting made about as fast as we can stand.
We use a CNC plasma cutter, then sometimes a CNC mill, to make a majority of our components. Then we bend them up on a manual finger brake. Even rookies can get the hang of it quickly!
Practice robot drive base is together. Wiring shall start tomorrow!

First of all, please remember that while we often focus on winning the Chairman's Award, that it is the effort to win that matters. No one "loses" RCA... if you've worked your butt off all year in the spirit of the award, then you've already won before you even get to the regional. - dtengineering [more]
