Lol… I was expecting we might have revive the back intake meta… but was not expecting zip ties to be the meta instead ![]()
Can’t wait for the IQ instructions to come out!

I see you took some inspiration from Sam Barbee
Sam would have never used that many screws. His robots were always held together by 10k zipties.
I can vouch, Sam was and will continue to be the zip tie legend
So, how did they attach the claw motor or other motors???
Also, I see at least 16 screws throughout the picture ; ) ; )
Might spend some offseason time making an actual all zip tie robot.
What’s this strange thing called “offseason”? Does this happen sometime between the end of worlds and the new game reveal???
yes, technically there is an off season. it lasts a couple of hours. plenty of time if you ask me.
My team didn’t want to go to virtual worlds, but we are going to a showcase event on the 15th. That gives us a whole week off!
Our offseason is… now till the new reveal… ![]()
God, my first year, my team of one hundred percent new people at our first competition ever, had to scramble to fix our robot because our crappy claw mechanism wasn’t fully put on. And so at the competition, we (because we were pressed for time) zip-tied instead of screwing in stuff. Wish I had a picture, but it was hilarious. This was in middle school and all the other schools knew us as “The Zip-Tie Team”
Please don’t revive old threads, there are plenty of Chit-Chat / Rumor Mill threads to post this in.
