KILLSWITCH punchlist

These are the tasks we need to complete before the October 13, 2018 KILLSWITCH Deathmatch.

Task	Notes	Skills Needed	Challenge Accepted By
level arena floor	floor sections not currently bolted down to frame. some sections may be off-square?	metalworking	(?)
add compressed gas bottle holders to frame	construct and weld to frame brackets for propane and nitrogen bottles so they don't sit on the ground, but are contained and integrated	metalworking	doug (design), (?)
add battery tray to frame	construct and weld to frame tray to hold two car batteries	metalworking	(?)
rework power supply to acomodate 12V battery option	add cutover switch and cabling to enable 12V battery operation rather than relying on external 120VAC source	electronics, maybe light metalworking	issac, (?)
calibrate controller & weapon timing	arena brain firmware did not get calibrated last year before being put in service	coding, pneumatics	issac & doug
replace exhaust fans	existing exhaust fans have died; need to be replaced with new, reliable ones	electronics	issac
brand arena	our name and logo should be added prominently to all sides of the arena	painting(?)	(?)
make "KILLSWITCH" sign for arena roof	we need a carnival-style sign to go on the roof. it will need tall legs to get above the awnings and need to be removable for transport. it should have blinking/chasing LED lamps.	electronics, construction, coding	issac & (?)
install exterior lighting	exterior lighting was assembled, but not installed, last year	electronics, 3d printing	issac, james, (?)
secure and reinforce walls	clear plastic walls currently taped in place. should be secured to frame [somehow] and a stronger "rail" added down low to contain new, more violent bots. ideally, low rail should be clear as well so kids can still see in.	(?)	(?)
add cameras inside arena	video from inside arena would greatly aid later promotional efforts. a four-camera video surveilance system is available for use if desired.	electronics, (?)	(?)
