Traybot Decoration

I’m thinking about decorating our robot, but I’m running out of ideas how to. Does anyone got any ideas? We don’t have a laser engraver so that would not be an option

One of my sister teams hydro-dipped their tray, and it looks fantastic.

Another neat low effort thing to add would be a flag pole. There are a few ways of making these, my favorite is a few standoffs and a rubber joint/link. Just make sure other teams don’t need those parts. :slight_smile:

You could also add on those miniature battery operated finger flashlights.

If your school has a 3D printer, you could 3D-Primt a mini figurine or something to go on your bot. But hydro-dripping looks very cool as well

Yeah, like a hood ornament?! Dude, that would be really sweet!
Maybe spray paint it gold or silver?

You could put your team’s or school’s mascot on there

We usually just tape on laminated papers with cool looking logos and photos on them.

Our robot’s name is Mushu ( he is all of my teams favorite Disney character) so this is what we did.

That makes me wish my team would agree to put Shrek on our robot (from the musical not the movie)

This makes me wish I never hear about your stupid “Shreck The Musical” ever again!

If you think it is a great pick up line, buckle up for a long lonely ride buddy.

@DRow, could you, please, program something into the forum to stop him from pooping with his Shreck references all over the place?

You can delete my post as off-topic and call me a :snowflake: but I’ve had enough!
