Pontiac Part Stores

Competition Off-Season Events
1

Can one of the Pontiac locals please post a list of names, locations, and phone numbers for “good to know about” hardware and part stores near the competition site, in case something breaks and we need to purchase repair parts, materials, or tools that no one has on hand?

In addition to the mall based tools places like Sears and megashardware stores like Home Depot, the list should also ideally include at least one of each of these: A good family hardware store (the megastores are limited in scope) an automotive store, a lumber yard, a raw metal material store, an industrial tool store (like Grangers), and a plastics source.

Of course it would help if they’re open on Saturday. <grin>

Thanks!

Relax FIRST teams are more thasn willing to share what they have.

Yes there is a local Home Depot.

I have a lot of stuff in my shop, if needed.

Remember you should have a fully functional robot, to make your day enjoyable.

I know. People here have been great!

But it’s always good for everyone to know what is nearby as well in case someone needs something that no one has.

Unfortunately, we’re working on the “working robot” part… See my other thread about that.

Thanks, Mike!
