Funniest/Wierdest thing you have done while building your robot

[Jacqui]

Time for another lovely Freshie year story!
*Pulls out a book of all my Weird/funny things*

I think that they funniest time was when I was in the new group of building the EduBot. (Detail: Every year my team has the new people, no matter what they are doing on the team, help build this little robot called the EduBot) Well, after we got that built, we all got turns driving it, and that is when I basically tried to run everyone over with it, knocked over all the soda cans, and got deemed a crazy, but good driver. I know that this seems kinda stupid, but I got to drive that little sucker out in the hallway and up the ramp...

We wre building a display box that rotated and had a door in it to place a touch screen monitor and a computer in it. 1 of the guys told me to use the rotozip to sand down th wood so that the door would open easier. He never knew that i Hadn't ever used a rotozip before. These things turn a lot faster than dremels.
And I was using it and it slipped and I melted our hinge pieces together and it couldn't be opned or closed.

Then during one build session, in another robotics competition we compete in (B.E.S.T. Robotics), someone spilt some primer on our robot and it got the name Optimus primer, so they made me and 2 other kids ( all 3 of us freshmen) coat avery piece of PVC with primer completely and we had to turn a fan on to blow the smell away. Naturally bing stupid freshmen last year, we stood infront of the robot and fan cousing all the primer to go to us basically getting us high.

Well...there was that one time the engineers had razor scooter races in the main hallway of our commons at 4:00 AM... (that was last year though...)

this year a security guard yelled at us for riding around on skateboards upstairs...turns out it was our teacher who was riding his skateboard to his room to get something

that's all I can think of right now...
