We've seen a lot of rain in Kokomo this week*, but we aren't letting that slow us down!  From parts to make your robot work and look better to exciting new offerings for the classroom, we've been hard at work on bringing you new and exciting offerings.

*yes, the AndyMark newsletter talked about rain. #watergameconfirmed
New 3' Peanut Extrusion Options

We originally developed Peanut Extrusion as part of the FIRST RES-Q game field for FIRST Tech Challenge, but we found it so useful we kept it around!

Peanut Extrusion is a 1" square extrusion with ribs that fit a 1/4-20 thread-forming screw.  This allows you to build robust, square structures quickly and easily!

Originally only available in 6' lengths, we now offer Peanut Extrusion in 3' lengths and in all the anodized colors we've offered Churro in.  This makes it easier to ship, easier to store, and much more stylish.

Protip: To drill the holes with proper alignment and spacing, we have a 3D-printable hole guide.  You can also use a short (1/2" to 1") off-cut of Peanut Extrusion to align the holes.
Roboterra Robotics Education Kit -- Get STEM curriculum in your school affordably!

The Roboterra Robotics Education Kit is a top-notch combination of hardware, electronics, and software-based curriculum designed to get younger students engaging in classroom STEM activities.  At $249, you're only six AA batteries away from having everything you need.

Roboterra's award-winning curriculum guides students through 20 projects that build on past lessons.  Students will be writing C++ from the very first lesson, and the 3D-modeled assembly steps allow students to rotate the model they're building for a clear view of how each model goes together.  This alone dramatically increases the chances of student success!  Best of all, no technology background is required to be able to lead students through this curriculum.

Many companies have tried to get us to distribute their classroom STEM kit, but Roboterra is the first one we've found with a really compelling combination of hardware, curriculum, and price. Check it out!
