 The purpose of the game rules is not to imagine and categorically list everything you should not do, but to give you guidelines of FIRST's intent and leave it to your developing good judgment to know what's acceptable and what is simply skirting the rules. - Mark McLeod [more] |

Here is our cart this year, we took an old toolchest on wheels from Delphi, painted it, and put LED's under it, and blue ones in the openings (you cant see them). Then we added a yellow light and hooked it up like a train car to our other cart.

KyleGilbert45Unfortanetly you cannot see the blue LEDs on the inside of the cart... the old cart from last year will be used to hold the arms and the new cart will hold the base...as of now the cart is still missing some team decals and the old cart is gonna get a new paint job but we think it will look pretty good when we are done....
I guess this is worth the week that my snot was blue and red from all the spray paint...hehe

actually there were 16-18 light bars on the bottom w/ 32 LEDs each (4 sets of 8, if my memory serves me correct). Making a total of 576 for the red LEDs on bottom. Also there were 5 light bars in each of two of the compartments w/ 32 LEDs each making the total # of blue LEDs 320. Making a grand total of 896.
