Go to Post Well, we put it in the bag at 11:58 last night. Needless to say we had to pull guys off of it to put it in the bag. I hope we didn't miss somebody and bag him up too. - jimwick [more]

The genius of FIRST is there isn't a rule that things must be done a certain way.

Student designed and built? Go for it. One of these years you may decide you want to explore something more and work even more closely with mentors.

Lots of engineers, teams do things differently, and it's all good.

You doing all your own welding? We didn't, til last year. We have 5 student TIG welders this year.

A mentor was doing the web til last year - it was me. *chuckle* I'm no pro. No student was inspired to do it til last year. Our student webmaster is the pro.

I'm doing the public relations. However it's rubbing off on other team members, and now some of our shyest members can walk into a congresswoman's open house, the new school superintendent's open house, and schmooze with the best of them.

There's much more to the FIRST program than just building the robot, and FIRST gives you the freedom to explore all of it at your own team's pace.
