Re: So who's up late tonight?
We do nearly all our own machining on team 100.

Seeing that we are total noobs, it often takes us unreasonably long times to machine simple mechanisms. It is not unusual for us to work in the machine shop until midnight.

We have been pulling all-nighters since we finalized our design four weeks ago!

It took us a draw dropping 27 hrs of machining to make a simple worm-drive for the big-CIM. There was one night when we worked on it until 2:00 am!

Fortunately, we bolted on the last mechanical component today and it will now be programing's turn to toil into the wee-hours of the morning

Re: So who's up late tonight?
Unfortunately for the state of Texas, we have a STANDARDIZED test tomorrow which for the juniors is an exit level test so we get to leave our robot an hour earlier than other school nights...Just our luck...Don't you love state standardized tests?!?

Re: So who's up late tonight?
I've been doing 12 hour shifts for the last two days, and will probably be in longer today... (9 AM start, 9 PM end, repeat.)

(This is what happens when the team decides that the majority of electrical and programming work will be left for the last weekend of build...and add on top of that the functional testing going on... )
