Re: Happy Ship Day

TGISD!!! I don't think I have ever been so happy to see it go as I was this year I hope everybody had a safe build. Nobody needs an accident like we did last year. I hope all of you including me get lots of sleep tonight and for at least 24 hours not think about the lists of things left to do.

Metal In Motion - Team 343 - happily announces that it shipped Andre' today in a plain vanilla wrapper (white box.) It was bittersweet to see the shipping date come, but sometimes you just "gotta go" with "what cha got."
Good luck to everyone this year. There are pictures of the send-off at www.metalinmotion.com.

congratulations to all teams, you've earned it! It's been a tough, yet quick six weeks! I know our team is excited about getting some sleep, and even more excited about the NJ regional!

Re: Happy Ship Day

I'm sad. As I went to the shop today, I saw the Fed Ex truck leaving. So, what to do now? Drive the other bot?

Re: Happy Ship Day

On the final hour of build season before shipping, I managed to sprain my right middle finger with a portable drill.

Hell of a way to end the build season

Re: Happy Ship Day

Can't wait to get a full night's sleep for the first time in 6 weeks and have some quiet dinners at home. Our FedEx driver showed up this afternoon an hour before he was due...it was like a Keystone Kops movie getting everything packed up and ready for him to take the crate away! Lucky for us, he was really nice and didn't mind waiting, since he wasn't scheduled to leave the school till the end of the hour.

Talking Re: Happy Ship Day

we spent all day monday testing and driving
and at the end of the day
one of our transmissions finally blew
thanks bane bots

well at least it happened at the end of the day
and we got plenty of testing done
pulled those out
and spent 3 hours cleaning the math dept. office we borrowed over the weekend after we brought it back from pelco.

it was kind of relieving this year.
last year this time we were still fabricating out bot until 45min before we shipped




whewwwww.
see you all at davis.

Re: Happy Ship Day

Well, sometimes you go with what you have.

Not sure where we went wrong - had a great design in the middle of week 2, and we were still fabricating in week 5. Well, I guess it takes a few years to get all 6 weeks to go as planned. Thinks always seem to take longer to fabricate because of the school facilities, as Spock said "Stone knives and axes".

I'm just glad that part's over.

Now to March 1, when we get to finish the bot in Trenton. In the meantime, I will sleep.

Don

Hehe...I can't raise my right arm above my head. The drill bit caught during weight reduction and slammed my elbow into my face (which, btw, I can't even stretch my arm to do normally...). But hey, I beat the hole in the end.
