CNC mill and CNC lathe, with people who know how to use them.
Good drill press, for smaller jobs.
Some form of grinder, maybe 1 surface grinder and 1 pedestal/bench grinder.
Welder that can weld aluminum.
Rich's list of people, and Rich.
Robot storage. Awards case.
Material rack.
Toolbox that stays organized.
A practice field. Preferably as close as possible to the FIRST official ones.

That's probably about $50,000 worth of parts and materials (people costs not included).
