if you want to learn more about the various metals we use, I put a link in the "links to useful stuff" box on the right to a page called "METALS" which talks about the various metals we use.
Please read it. I don't like explaining things that you should already know because I've already written/talked about them. :]

Almost forgot.. I can make it Saturday XD
Hey guys,
My name is Senai and I was part of the team for The Blender the last couple years.
I was checking out your site and I wanted to say how well put together and organized it is. I especially found your tutorials on wiring and metal very useful (I was beginning to wonder why my mystery metal was giving me purple chips).
Anyway, keep up the great work and I hope to see you guys at competition this year. If you'd like to grudge match me, I'll be in the 15lb college division.
