As always, the deadline is nominally Sunday at midnight Eastern.

Go!

Ah, 2003. When the FIRST logo was squished, the carts were wood, and the caption contest was a year from fruition.

When 930 weighed their robot, they started to wonder if taking their Bosch-Rexroth sponsorship in the form of extrusion was a mistake.

Neighboring teams using 80-20 assured them that it was not.

What are the guys in the background going to do with the 3d 8th notes?

What time is it? 9:30! Do I want to go to bed? Yes!

Student pointing: “Do you see that? I made that.”

They got their first positive feedback that their Aim High robot was too heavy when it collapsed atop their cart. (It used to be about 44" tall…)

I can almost tell where the cart ends and the robot begins.

The lawnmower handle went unnoticed until they fired up the Brigg’s motor as their drive train power source.

The good old days when compressors were less reliable than a bicycle pump.

Who knew an air powered robot would be so heavy?

Let’s get judgy!
