Build season comes with so many stupid ideas
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pi...a&id=631678151
I got bored and drew this up in like 5 minutes. It amused me for about 5 more minutes after that. Hopefully it can bring you 5 minutes of joy as well. And yes, that is a large bag.  |

Re: Build season comes with so many stupid ideas
True, but I'm thinking this would be within the rules. Just use compressed air and in the last 20 seconds let it out into the bags. The right bag would have to be a little smaller to get the tilt... and I love how much thought I've put into this highly impractical idea.

Re: Build season comes with so many stupid ideas
It's a neat idea, but be sure to read the rules to see if it's legal. Pneumatics are kind of strange....

Re: Build season comes with so many stupid ideas
yeah, I'm sure there is something preventing it from being legal. Not even going to bring it up to the team -- just for giggles.

Re: Build season comes with so many stupid ideas
Got to love though that XKCD had a comic about FIRST. But I do love the original pic, I like the face that shows up and everything. Awesome idea, almost like an airbag, except you would want it to explode a little slower than an airbag though.
