Re: Pre Kickoff "Bucket List"

- Go through the toolboxes, hardware, & material bins - restock as needed
- Gut out the 2010 robot (cRio, motors, gearboxes, etc.) -- very sad.
- Design drivetrain improvements that will probably be useless after Jan 8
- Spend time with my wife and 2 daughters who aren't into robots
- Pitch the manure out of the barn. Grind enough grain to get my 5 cattle through the next couple months (hobby farmer when not building robots)
- Take care of the honeydo jobs around the house that won't be a priority during build
- Pray that nobody gets hurt during build and I don't get sent out of town on business anytime soon.

Re: Pre Kickoff "Bucket List"

-Get caught up with my team, which I haven't seen since September
-Get ready for spring semester
-Sleep
-RELAX!

Relaxing is the biggest one. I have recently begun to run out of time for relaxation, and I sure miss it!

I'm curious where people get their hardware and screws. We are going to try the Bolt Depot Assortment bins this year.
http://www.boltdepot.com/us-assortments.aspx

We will also be using Hansen Hobbies again this year for wires/electrical.
http://www.hansenhobbies.com/product...connectorkits/

Are there any other hardware websites and assortments that people suggest ?
