My Project

FIRST Robotics Competition Team at our school is an after school extra-curricular program for students, grades 9-12, to learn about the fields of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) through hands-on learning in the field of robotics. Through the FRC program, my robotics team members design, build, and program robots.

The Shaft Collars will be needed for all of the 1/2" Hex shafts the students are using this year to hold parts in place.

They will also need rivets for assembly of the robot this season. Lastly the floor mats are going to help protect their knees and ankles after standing on concrete for 13 hours a day during the competition events.
