If you put the 2AM nights at the beginning, you find yourself a LOT happier this time of year. All smiles here in G-ville.

Unfortunately the if our team had 2am meetings at the begginning we would just be talking and nothing would be accomplished because we're trying to find the best design. Then we'd still have to build it in the same amount of time.

I picked up the frame from the powder coating guy today. Its pretty

we should have the drivetrain up and running by the end of tonight, hmmm i feel behind, but this happens to us every year, last year our robot shipped and couldn't even move, so we will be ahead.

Is there anyone that will be going with minimal complete robot practice time, like us?

We will likely end up in this scenario as well, based on where we are right now. We are hoping to have our turret weight low enough to have it withheld along with some electronics components so we can do the software tweaks of it in the time until our (week 6) regional.

I asked for the latest mechanical punch list, figuring a dozen items would be on it. Close to a full page of text came back. I'm going to go in and work on the "Time Stop Machine", I think I have a better chance of getting that done in the next week than I do the punch list.

I suppose the rest of us must envy those teams that have a week of practice with two robots. We're usually up until mid-night the day before shipping, and the robot's still not completely done.

Wait, we have to finish it?

[dmoody92]

Umm, this is our first year so we have a lot still to do. We basically have two main mechanics, one is done and the other one, we haven't even started yet. The programming is going well but still needs a lot of work...I hope we finish in time!!
