Re: How does your team find work space?
1503 has always built out of our school. The school has generously given us two storage rooms, which are more than suitable to house 5 robots, and our piles of old parts, etc. Our machine shop is large enough to work out of comfortably, and robots live there during build season, as the robot kids in Manufacturing class get to make robot parts for their projects, occasionally. We also keep them there, while they're being built, for the sake of keeping parts together, and it's just easier that way.
Our schoolboard gives us a room or two at a school that is either underpopulated or closed every year. In 5 years, we've had 3 practice facilities. We share this with a couple nearby teams.
