Re: pic: 32lbs of press
Was that added to the Bill of Materials? 
In the 2006 (Aim High) eliminations at the Los Angeles Regional, Team 4 borrowed a tow hitch from the NASA machine shop to "beef-up" the robot. Six heavy-duty zip-ties weren't quite strong enough to keep it on board in the first QF match, so I had to retrieve it from the field. We did a better job of securing it for subsequent matches. A little later (as we were going into the finals), the machine shop staff came by to reclaim their tow hitch. We replace it with a roll of #25 chain, which got the job done!
