Re: Who is finished???

well we just finished putting on the 2nd wing . . so all weve got left is to build and mount the arm. the robot should be 90% done this Friday(note the last 10% might take 90% of the total time)

this build is going fast compared to last year

Re: Who is finished???

Not done, but we could conceivably be moving by the end of business Saturday. We'll be tackling our Super-Secret Widgets of Graciously Professional Doom next.

(Yes, I brought the phrase with me to 1618 this year. And no, it's nothing that anybody with the team's ever done before in FRC.)

Re: Who is finished???

I dont know how you guys can do it. My team last year finished right on time, with the mechanical portion finally done halfway through the competition in Atlanta. I currently have no idea how far they are this year, but I'm guessing itll be down to the wire as it has always been.

That's quite a light drive base, Cody. We're pushing 130+ on our base already

no we were just building a shooter protection thingy.
and working out electrical problems with the camera.

right now our only concern is weight . . we got to little. our base weighs 31 lb each wing weighs 15, and the arm will weigh . ohh 1-2 lb(dead serious). so yeah we got about 40-50 lb to pick up somewhere between now and mid feb.

Re: Who is finished???

We more or less have all of the parts and metal we need for the whole bot - we are just waiting on two shipments for gearboxes, chain, sprockets, and shaft. After that, it's just a matter of building and fabricating. EVERYTHING, including the bumpers, lexan top plates, signage, etc. is modeled in CAD so now we just have to do it in real life.

Our chassis body should be completed and together today (we have about 75 holes to drill and tap for 1/4-20). Depending on if those shipments come in today then the whole chassis will be moving by this weekend.

If we can get the chassis 100% complete and moving, with electronics, etc then next week we will start building the manipulators. This year we are building the robot step by step, instead of splitting everything thing up and assemble it in the last week (to find that nothing winds up fitting together right).

Yep, I think we're about finished...just the finishing touches on the foil wrap and he'll be ready to go...do you think they'll notice if our robot is a bit more human-looking than usual?
