Students may only use the materials provided in the production of their robots. The three exceptions to this rule is that students may supplement their robots with

  2. outside adhesive material (specifically glues or tapes), and

  3. paper

No other outside struc- tural mechanical or electrical components should be used. All items must be returned to lab in Tutorial 6, except for items marked with a (⋆).
