Re: facilities
Your lucky you have any sort of technology stuff on the site. 759 have built robots at people houses every year. last season the robot was built in several locations depending on the facilities. for example one mentors was a builder and so had a garage/workshop area with stuff to work with wood and basic metal things. Another student has a little conservatory with a mill and another guy lives on a farm with welding equipment. It was assembled in parts and bought together. For the years before that it was built at a workshop which one of the students parents owned, as he repaired/restored buses and that was an amazing place to work at ... andit was somewhere where the bot could live for build season.
we share a big cabin thing, which we basically used the back 1/3 of so that they caretakers etc have access to their stuff on a day by day basis. we arn't allowed to work in there due to health and safety though. It is worth trying to get a sponsor to donate workshop time or space and i believe this is what they are trying to do this year
