In A Box

Our “In a Box” kits are accessible step by step guides for all of our initiatives to support others to replicate and grow these outreach initiatives on their own.

Lilypad In A Box

Lilypad In A Box is Team Appreciate’s way of sharing the Lilypad initiative. In the documents below, FRC 2468 outlines how to manufacture Lilypads and start your own Lilypad project. The LilyTool provides for a convenient and simple way to transfer the cut pattern for a Lilypad to a sheet of plywood.  A manufacturing file for the LilyTool is available below. The file is a PDF, provided for teams who have access to laser cutters and can manufacture their own.

The development of the LilyTool was done on Team Appreciate’s GlowForge laser.
