At 5:30 we go as a team to dinner and once 3-4 people finish we go outside and start playing hacky sack and that usally lasts untill 6:15. Then we go back to builing, with some drink breaks (we get unlimited re-fills from the fountain machines)

Lunch. We walk either up the hill back of our build site for fast food or go to a deli across the street and down aways. Sometimes we will play volleyball (have a picture somewhere of the team doing so). Then it's back to the grind.

We should take more breaks. Once, we went flying around the ice in our go-cart though... That was fun.

Re: What do you do when its time to take a break from building??

we take a small food break (lunch or dinner, whatever it happens to be) and just sit down and talk for a few minutes...I sometimes just eat and if we're not talking about anything related to the robot, or robotics, I just leave and go back to doing my work

I often take trips to the vending machines in the cafeteria, and every now and then we play ultimate frizbee outside.

The team breaks for about a half hour for eating, but that's about it. Sometimes, I drive an RC car.

We eat. Other breaks occur when someone is testing something and everyone else comes and watches.

Re: What do you do when its time to take a break from building??

Pretty much the parents of the people in the team bring us food everyday. The parents have it set up so one parent brings food each day and alot of tiems we have left overs and such, pretty much each day we get a 5-10 minute break to eat and talk and such. After that its build build build build, home...

1293 usually stops for a half-hour or hour for lunch. Other than that, we really don't quit until we quit.

Re: What do you do when its time to take a break from building??

We eat. Then we go to magnaflow.com and listen to the 4 bangers with cans or the F350 Powerstroke diesel....or a vette or a GTO or a stang.

Or there's the days when I bust out the chili....it acts slow...the gaseous effects aren't usually felt til' the day after.

Then today, I just finished rebuilding the injection pump on the Vocational department's 1984 ford diesel tractor....I went bombing through campus in 6th gear...i'm not a rap fan but, you just want to blast Move &(#*! as you drive...that thing's a tank....
