Re: pic: 217 entry?

Please note that there is no Team 217 Teaser #4 and don't hold your breath waiting for one. We will show a picture of our robot (full disclosure) after it is wired and looks all pretty.

I can tell you this: our robot has more chrome than the one Raul has pictured in this thread. I can also tell you that we are using 8 motors, 6 encoders, the camera and over 1,000 rivets ....

I know rivets are awesome, but a thousand. Can't wait to see your bot.

Re: pic: 217 entry?

We used over a thousand rivets last year...but I think only a couple hundred were on the robot at one time

Can't wait to see the finished product, Paul!

I swear we used over 1000 rivets taking things on and off, on and off, on and off, etc.
I bought out 3 hardware stores for $200.00.

I hope you have one of these.

Probably have about 100 rivets on our bot

But I wish we had more. That tool is far too much fun!

If we're talking random vehicles with "217" on them, I prefer the 217 car pulling the camper trailer in that video of a race in England posted in a CD thread I can't seem to find. Hilarious stuff.

I imagine the attachment in this post would be a good start in verifying Paul's rivet claims.

Re: pic: 217 entry?

Knowing 217, it's probably a transformer....don't be alarmed.

At that rate, get 16 encoders and then the 4 of them you need will be working.
