Wait, Jim. I didn't see a miter saw, planer, router or jointer listed for 1730's pit. Or do you bring your own??

Re: Newton 09

We don't use fancy tools like that, but we might need some wood glue or something

I think it matters more that we're giving out all this help and parts out of our pockets. More than what we have to give. We have a lot not all, but you can't bring every tool or part known to man and fit it in a pit sized box with a robot and a few people.

Please accept my apologies, I wasn't trying to criticize or minimize your efforts. My post was really a jest targeted at the NERDS (who's awesome robot is crafted from wood). I wouldn't expect any team to even own cabinet makers' power tools (unless they're sponsored by New Yankee Workshop).

It's awesome that your team is offering assistance and opening your pit to other teams. You're setting a high standard for GP at Championship and deserve kudos for your hospitality.

Let's put it this way at the Palmetto Regional Bilfred said that our team had everything but the kitchen sink. So you'll just have to come by and see what tricks we have up our sleeves
