I haven't started my pre-build yet, but that's mainly because I'm submitting a paper to the Siemens-Westinghouse competition about four days from now... I'll be starting as soon as I catch up with all the work I pushed back for the sake of this project xD.Lily Essence wrote:I'm just curious, but have you guys started your pre-build yet?
My team is (kinda) off to a slow start this year and I was curious what sets you guys are building with.
I am currently looking at the Amino Acid Starter Kit (My god it's expensive and shipping is pricey...) is this the set I should get to begin with? I don't want to mispurchase something like this.
Thank you for reading and helping~!
Given that it's not even October yet and the earliest competitions aren't until February or so, I don't think you need to worry about your team being off to a slow start just yet.
I wouldn't order the Amino Acid Starter Kit if I were you- it has a lot of stuff you don't need, and the Mini-Toober it comes with isn't the right length. Unfortunately, I don't know where to get the correct set; last year, they provided every team with one for free, and while I'd have to assume they won't do that this year, I'd guess there'll be a special set with the correct length of Mini-Toober available somehow. I'll try to get back to you on that one once I've figured it out myself.
