CAGE and other things

First things first, our alliance came in second at CAGE Match!  I believe this is the furthest our team has ever made it in a competition.

Not much needed to be done after the competition, save for general clean-up.  A few reparations and improvements were made to our machines and equipment, including the pneumatic display box and two saws.  Eventually successful efforts were made to fix our robot sizing box, which wasn't fitting together very well.

The software on the new year's eve ball was updated to display 2012-2013, rather than 2011-2012, in preparation for the coming new year.

As a final note, we now have two new sponsors!  Thanks to both Taurus Tool and the Industrial Center Credit Union for their support!
