Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Drive team practice shenanigans :)
Some friendly competition between our two drive teams (the times are how long it takes to fill one rack top-bottom):
Douglas gets 1:16
Scott gets 1:10
Douglas gets 1:12
Scott gets 1:04
Scott said he will buy anyone who breaks 1:00 a double double.
Also, we had to take apart a bane bot gearbox and find what was making the wrist jam. We found not one, but THREE pieces of metal! (We saved the biggest one to frame in the lab. Or throw in the fiery pits of mordor- we’re not sure yet.)
4 days to Madera!
