Team 135 Field Done!

As always team 135 has the field done on the first day. At 11 pm, we added the last piece and called it complete.

We do not have foam, because it had to be ordered.

We only have one upright and a tunnel at the other bump, only one end of the field.

Check out the pics on my facebook at this link

Quick construction! Thanks for putting pics up, it's nice to be able to see it when I couldn't make it to the Kickoff.

I second this, it's amazing how quickly you guys built this.

I'm jealous, I wish we had a place to build our own field.

Re: Team 135 Field Done!

I wonder which team this week will claim their bot is finished and ask to use your field.

Nice work, 135. Can you let us know how much of the far part of the field isn't viewable from your alliance station because of the bumps?

Re: Team 135 Field Done!

We had around 10 parents and the normal 5 mentors there to build it. There is little to no visual obstuction of the far wall.

Our goal is always to have it up before we do any planning.

Re: Team 135 Field Done!

Let me clarify, what was stated before was in addition to the entire student team, minus the 2-5 who went to the kickoff.

Re: Team 135 Field Done!

It's only the field, though, so while the students could still learn when building the field, there should be nothing wrong with the adults handling it.
