Hi everyone,
We’re still working on bumpers and I don’t think we’re going to be ready for our competition today. Last year, a senior’s parent sewed us some nice reversible bumpers, but with the new rules, his departure, and a far more complicated robot than last year, we’ve fallen really behind on them.
First, we redesigned how we do the plywood frame this year due to our poor experiences with them last year, so although they should be solid, we’re really behind on the other parts (turns out going to an academically challenging school means you spend a lot of time on academics). Next, our bumper fabric from andymark didn’t arrive until yesterday and our mail service didn’t tell us they arrived until I checked the fedex tracking number today. I think we can get the noodles attached before we leave, but we don’t have anyone who knows to sew and attach the bumper fabric.
Is anyone who’s going to the Waco district event today able to help us out?
