This picture does not do the students justice for how much engineering that went into the robot. During week 4 we lost our sheet metal sponsor, and had to redesign the frame from scratch. While myself and other mentors were letting out our frustration, the students didn’t even flinch. In the next 4 days a brand new frame was designed, built, and welded.
Moral of the story, CAD is a beautiful thing.
