Whew!
We are back from the third season of Comedy Central BattleBots. All in all it was an amazing time. I cannot talk about the results but I will say that our team brought four robots and they were in a total of twelve filmed fights! This was our best season yet.

I'll be taking a break from robots, but when I get back I will post some pictures from the event.

How cool is this?
We ordered some air valves and by the time we got them in the mail we find out that the factory sent the wrong item! So we spent the afternoon looking for a replacement. Out of the blue we call Westfield Hydraulics Inc. The owner Jack tells me he can custom make something for us and three hours later I'm holding these new valves for our robot. Thanks Jack!!

No major news.
I just wanted to say that Brian, Luke and myself have been working hard to bring Minion back, bigger and badder than ever.
