Bear in mind:
1. MyFirst Robot Workshop will NOT provide all material (including aluminum bar), however you can borrow from Robotics Society as a member. If you want to borrow item from Robotics Society, please download the Borrow Item List or Request Form and contact
ONG CHI WEI 017-7121175. Pass the Borrow Item List to him, and he will open the cabinet for you in certain time. You can check his schedule which is pasted on the cabinet which is placed in front of the mechanical lab(SF block). The purpose of doing this, is just to control Robotics Society's properties, feel free to borrow all your needs from Robotics Society. This is because some components are very expensive.

2. Electronics component will not be loaned, because it is consumable item and hardly to reuse. So the component should be bought by yourself. BE CAREFUL!! There are thousand of similar components in the market. You can refer to CHOO SHIONG for further information regarding on electronics components, he is a kind people.

3. I request all of the team members to present what you had done during the tutorial class. The presentation will not consume more than 3 minutes. That is the way for you to share ideas.

4. The BEST way to learn is "ASK". Please ask during the class if you face any doubts. The workshop is opened for you to ask and learn. Building robot is very flexible, you can build your robot by using your own creative idea. YES! Please do so.

5. You have to build your robot at your free time. This is because tutorial class is just for learning.

6. Enjoy!
