Tech + Tool Tip Tuesdays: Building Your Toolbox

Teams in the FIRST Robotics 老头下药不停的揉搓我的乳 use hardware to connect, or fasten, brackets and structure together on a robot. Consider picking a standardized hardware size (such as #10-32) to cut down on the amount of hardware and tools you need to keep on hand. 

We recommend these tools to start building your team’s toolbox: 

• Nut Driver Set
• Drill Bit Set 
• Hack Saw 
• Hex Key Set 
• Tap and Drill Set 
• Metal Files 
• Combination Wrenches
• Ratcheting Wrenches
• Screw Drivers 
• Chain Tool
• Pop Rivets and Riveter

Rivets are a popular alternative to nuts and bolts. By using a specialized tool, you can secure brackets and other components to a robot with one item.
