FRC Machine Shop with Sector67

In April Sector67 volunteered to run a machine shop for both FIRST Robotics Seven Rivers Regional and St. Louis Worlds events. It had been a while since I participated in FRC in any form (though I did mentor an FTC team this year, which is another FIRST competition).

Here are some photos. Since I only took photos when there was a break in the work orders coming in to the shop (usually because there was some mandatory attendance event for teams), this photo set gives the impression that we were a lot less busy than we actually were.
