Re: do you have any part of previous years robots in your house
I've got a rotating light, a victor, and the casing and magnets from a chipperwohl (sp?) motor.
Pulled it all out of the bad parts bin at Small Parts in Houston. (I was one of the guys working there) We had a lot of fun with that chipperwohl motor magnet...we magnetized all of the scissors at Small Parts, and de-magnetized this one guy's hotel key... |

Re: do you have any part of previous years robots in your house
I got 1.6 pounds of "useless" weight cutt off of last years "OPPS!!!!!" sitting on my bed stand with a little plaque that I still need to put on to commemorate and remember the worst of times along with the best of times (though nobody is taking a saw to this years robot I'll have to settle for a picture or a piece of prototype)!

Re: do you have any...
of course! there's a gear my dad modified... the custom electronics board from last year's robot (replete with sweat and tears)... and the sliver of 80-20 that I have on a necklace!
And speaking of housing robots at your house, I had our robot from last year under my mom's grand piano for 4 or so days. When we opened up the wings and the lift... It looked like it was holding up the piano. Unfortunately, we didn't get pictures . |

Re: do you have any part of previous years robots in your house
Unfortunatly many of the parts from my old high school robot have been canibalized for other projects. I do, however, have an authentic battle worn front panel from our 2003 robot, comeplete with all the dents and knicks a good seasoned robot should have.

Re: do you have any part of previous years robots in your house
geesh...my garage stores the CHAOS 131 editions of 2000, 2001,2002,2003 and 2004 will be here soon since our "official' season is over. All are still in working order. The 1994 edition was just given to some team members last week to "get working".
