(...) You missed the part where you had to rig this crash twice, once when your robot failed (this is where Chris says "Do over! Do over!" and I curse at him), the second time when my robot was actually strong enough to fend it off: (URL) there was (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I get ya. Well, if we did it, I want to do it as a sub contest, eg, on the side the way we did marbles last time with DaveK. I think that went really well and Chris kept the parts to the BoP balance. If we are aiming for a "tougher" (eg, PX, (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) It was on sale at S@H a couple of months ago for 50% off. I'd say if you need one, $10 is a good price. Unless you have a real need, I think $20 is too much. I have had one for a couple of years and I use it for one purpose only, dyno-ing (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-05, to lugnet.robotics)
