 I'm wondering just what you think the people who DID set this system up actually do for a living instead? Sheep farmers? - DonRotolo [more] |

2012 began the first year 701 built two robots per build season. This allowed us to have a final competition robot with powder coating! We actually built 3 bots (prototype, practice, and competition) in 2015, and I am so excited to see our progress extend into future seasons! It's only two months until kickoff, and I am so juiced for 2016 STRONGHOLD.

How quickly do you generally finish your robot in order to powdercoat it before the season ends?

1st robot is done in about 4 weeks. 2nd bot, the one that is powdercoated is done at the end of week 5 and returns from powdercoating shop in the middle to end of week 6. Then spend 1-2 frantic days putting it back together and test it out. Having the robot at the powdercoaters for 3-4 days is really tough, but we can justify it because we have the other robot to practice and program with.

Impressive. Do you experience a noticeable increase in weight with the powder coat? If so, how much? Looks great!
