If you were in Portland that year (I'm guessing 2005, right?) you might remember Wooden Thunder, which sported an Okoume plywood tower that I built from boat scraps to show students that not everything had to be aluminum. The students bolted it onto the kitbot chassis and it is what went to the tournament. I remember a 'bot with a wooden arm (sounds like the beginning of a joke...) that could well have been yours.
