Take the Robot Challenge!



In this Community Education course at the College of San Mateo, you will build your own fighting combat robot in just 11 weeks. Work on your own or as part of a team. At the end of the course we will hold a tournament and fight the robots against each other!



CSM's Tech Center is where it will happen, and is equipped with all the production machines and tools you could ever dream of. Milling machines, lathes, welders, grinders, sheet metal and fabrication equipment, and much more.



Special emphasis will focus on building combat robots within a small budget, including scavenging motors and gearboxes, batteries, and radio controls from inexpensive items.



This class is designed for builders of any skill level and age (under



16 must enroll with a parent or adult partner). Even if you have never picked up a tool in your life, you will build a robot.

The class starts on January 26 and is held each Monday night from 6 PM to 10 PM in San Mateo, so sign up now!

--Any chance of making it a telecourse? It's a heckuva commute from Santa Rosa... :-)
