Tomorrow is the first day of competition at the Capitol Clash. Our winch arm was broken and we didn't have a hacksaw to fix it with. So I came up with this... how do you guys like it? =-)

The cutting part is the smallest thing on the hacksaw!
Has it fallen apart yet?

Cyberguy34000hehhe, nice. I love it when teams don't have the right tool or part when they need it, and then come up with some great solution to stand in.
I remember a team with a flipper bot at the Denver Regional and they were placing the bot on the field when a pneumatic piston fell off. This is with about 20 seconds to get their bot on the field, and they didn't have any of their tools or equipment nearby. One quick-thinking student yanked the shoelaces from his shoe, and then the team quickly tied the things around the piston and the support that it fell off of. All with about 5 seconds to spare. The cool part, was that the makeshift repair ended working just fine.
I think it's just great when people are using their brains and coming up with cool stuff like this

That's way cooler than our make-shift keyway cutter! You should sell hacksaw kits!
5 Hack saw blades taped together, side-by-side with duct tape. Just run it up and down inside a hub.
