Purchasing the SuperPit has been simplified to buying a "Complete Kit" or "Individual Components".
The "Complete Kit" will have all the necessary parts to assemble the Super Pit.
"Individual Components" is an option for teams if:
They already have some of the parts on hand, such as raw material or custom assemblies

The outside table pillars will be assembled by bolting the Upper Table Support (Big) and Lower Table Support (Big) to the table legs using #10-32 x .375" L bolts into thin Lock Nuts (#10-32).
Repeat this step for the other outside table pillar.
The middle table pillar will be assembled by bolting the Upper Table Support (Small) and Lower Table Support (Small) to the table legs using #10-32 x .375" L bolts into thin Lock Nuts (#10-32).
Line up the assembly inside the case, make sure everything is square and straight. Take a sharpie and mark all the holes to drill to 0.201" into the wood.
Do not drill out the holes in this step.
Remove the assembly from the case and drill holes. If any of the holes line up with any metal or handles we recommend not drilling those holes.
The Battery connectors are not included in the kit.
Take the charger holders and battery holders and install SB50 or SB120 connectors using #10-32 x .750" L bolts into the pem nuts. Use washer shims as needed to make the surface that the battery slides on smooth and flush.
Repeat this step for all of the charger holders and battery holders.
If using the SB50 connector you will need to drill out the holes in the connector so a #10-32 bolt can fit through.
Install the battery holder from Step 6 onto the assemblies completed in Step 5 using #10-32 x .750" L Counter Sink bolts.
Leave the bottom two rows empty for the moment. We recommend not tightening everything fully yet.
Install assembly in case where desired using the #10-32 x .500"L Particleboard Screws.
Make sure to add the #10-32 x .500"L Particleboard Screws onto the top portion of the Battery Rack and into the table top.
Install the remaining charger holders and battery holders and then tighten everything down.
The following sections will have all necessary information for the assembly of the Super Pit Toolbox Kit.
The Corner Case Kit does not include the Toolbox.
Place the toolbox inside of the case and lay the Main Trim pieces into position. Secure the trim to the case and toolbox using the #10-32 x .500"L Particleboard Screws.
Lay the Main Trim pieces into position. Secure the trim to the case and toolbox top using the #10-32 x .500"L Particleboard Screws.
Secure the Light Shield pieces using the #10-32 x .500"L Particleboard Screws.
The Light Shield should not protrude outside of the case.
Mount the Caster onto the Caster support using the bolts and nuts included.
Repeat this for the remaining Casters.
Install the Caster Supports to the Cart Pan using ten #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts per support. Fully secure them with #10-32 nuts.
Install the Battery Holder to the Cart Pan using six #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts. Secure them with #10-32 nuts.
Install the Driver Station Holders using two #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts and secure them with #10-32 nuts.
Install #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts into the top of the Left and Right Rails securing into the front rail. Secure them with #10-32 nuts.
Install the Back Rail using four #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts, secure loosely with #10-32 nuts.
These bolts will be tightened in the next step.
Install the Left and Right Handle rails using six #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts and secure them with #10-32 nuts.
The bolts installed during Step 6 should now be fully secured.
Install the Left and Right Gusset using eight #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts and secure them with #10-32 nuts.
The following sections will have all necessary information for the assembly of the SuperCart.
The following sections will have all necessary information for the assembly of the SuperStation.
Install the Main Rails onto the Driver Station Base using a total of ten #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts and secure them using #10-32 nuts.
Attach the Laptop Plate to the Main Rails in your desired location using four #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts and nuts.
Install the Side Rails and Corner Gussets using #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts in the locations shown below.
Ensure that the bottom bolts go through both the Base plate and the Side Rail.
Install the Port Covers in the appropriate locations using four #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts and #10-32 nuts.
This step can be skipped if the Port Covers are not being used.
Install the handles using the included 1/4"-20 x 1"L bolts.
The included Tube Nuts need to be pressed into the Handles before the installation process.
Take the shims along with the assembly from Step 4 and lay them in the case. Line up the shims with the assembly, make sure everything is square and straight. Use tape if needed to hold the shims into position while marking out hole positions. Take a sharpie and mark all the holes to drill to 0.201" into the wood.
Do not drill out the holes in this step.
The reference picture below only shows half of the drilling locations that need to be marked.
Ensure that all rails that are in contact with the case get the holes marked.
Remove the shims and assembly from the case and drill holes. If any of the holes line up with any metal or handles we recommend not drilling those holes.
Take shims and assembly from Step 4 and set them back in the case in the same layout that was used to mark the drilling locations in Step 5. Use #10-32 x 1.000" L bolts with lock nuts to bolt everything down. We recommend not tightening everything fully yet.
Install the rest of the bin rails and then tighten everything down.
