Would a fluorescent drop light with a hook be what you are thinking of? I'll grab one on our hardware run. We can cut aluminum in the theater shop, but we'll have to buy our own blades and not use the nice wood blade that's currently installed. I'll pick up the blade we need, and some ear plugs! -Ken Wells St. Mark's School Southborough, MA 01772 (508) 786 6000 ________________________________________ From: smsrobotics-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [smsrobotics-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Maria DeVuono-Homberg [devuonom@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, January 23, 2011 1:21 PM To: smsrobotics@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [smsrobotics] Re: Lowes. Another item we might want to consider is a work light on an extension cord. We are working in dim lighting over by the cRIO testbed and will soon be working in layered, mechanical, tight spaces on the robot. A little light goes a long way in those dim recesses. BTW: Have we determined that we can cut aluminum, especially if we were to try to "rip" on the long axis of an L-bracket for example? (Maybe I am not being clear enough here...)

I would be happy to help with the hardware run, since I have to go that way today anyway. I've found that full sheets of plywood fit mighty nicely in a minibus! -Ken Wells St. Mark's School Southborough, MA 01772 (508) 786 6000 ________________________________________ From: smsrobotics-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:smsrobotics-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [smsrobotics-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Maria DeVuono-Homberg [devuonom@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, January 23, 2011 11:32 AM To: smsrobotics@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:smsrobotics@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [smsrobotics] Re: Lowes. As for Lowes: I am not sure if Lindsey told you about the bumpers' 3/4" plywood (which is tricky to fit in my car so I didn't get it). There is some aluminum stock there, but you will have to see for yourself and then talk about options. (I'd like to check out the 80/20 site bcz I believe it had stock aluminum. I'll get back to you.)

Folks, I am going to make a shopping trip to Lowes and BJs at 2:00 p.m. . It would be nice if 2 or 3 of you could come.... Let me know if you can come. Let’s meet at the front circle. -jm. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Director of Academic Computing and Computer Science Instructor St. Mark's School, Southborough, MA (508) 786-6155 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lekin woh zindagi hi kya jisme koi namumkin sapna na ho?
