Enjoy!

What would the components in an such as that cost?

Very impressive design. Nice to finally see a perfect score.

I believe it ended up being about 300-400$ for everything, probably less. Here is the parts list for the dispenser 3d-printer-like assembly if anyone's interested:

2x Timing Belt and pulley- https://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Pulley- ... iming+belt

2x Stepper motor mounts- http://www.ebay.com/itm/US-Shipping-Nem ... SwnFZXVYWW

2x Stepper motors- http://www.ebay.com/itm/US-Ship-Short-B ... 1602354895

6x Linear rail shafts- http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-4pcs-8mm-SK ... SwLzdWRCiN

2x 40cm Steel Shaft- http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/1417765615 ... noapp=true

2x linear bearing blocks- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018X9NH04/re ... B00IJ67BJA

1x Large linear bearing block- https://www.adafruit.com/products/1180

As for the gripper arm we used 3-270 degree servos - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018E ... UTF8&psc=1
and servo blocks for each joint to ensure stability - https://www.amazon.com/ServoBlocks-Hub- ... rvo+blocks

We had it laser cut by Ponoko out of plastic that was the same thickness as the penny.

Hey in case anyone cares to know the top 2 scores for Robot Arm at our state competition (Missouri) were 350 and 344

To Jander more specifically:
I know that this is not the place for official clarifications and such etc etc...
Under the SO laser policy: "Laser and high-brightness LED devices are intended to be operated under the control of a human operator at all times"
Would an aiming laser aimed at the target turned on and off autonomously by a robot be illegal?

Yes, it is illegal and you've quoted the exact section it violates.

In terms of Idaho, the highest scores were 501 and 117 (Mine).

Was this using National scoring? I don't believe that the state scoring allows for anything above a mid-400.

My bad. I'm still thinking invitational scoring.
