Milling Holes
  • Josh used the mill to drill the holes. At first they were .133 inches off of the target, which was really frustrating. He then went back and fixed it, creating four holes instead of the two that were supposed to be there. Josh concluded that the mill is not his best friend due to it's meticulous ways of being.
Notebook
  • Brad and Akhila worked on printing out and setting up the notebook to prepare for the competition and worked on scouting sheets for each team.
  • Since it is a full competition, the scouting sheets took up a LOT of time. It was a little tedious, but it kind of fun to see the different team names and sources of creativity.
  • The pit scouting and match scouting sheets are very similar. They cover auton strategy and several other important scoring elements.
Electrical Work
  • Braden was able to almost finish hooking up all the motors.
Moving Samantha Module

  • It was tedious work, but it had to be done.
Score Some Balls
