I hope this goes through, I have never posted to this group before. We have 12 EV3 kits and I want the students to do an inventory of them, generating a parts list for me to order Has anyone created a form of the parts in the kit? I'm happy to do it but didn't want to reinvent the wheel.

p.s. Where are people finding Google groups these days? I'm not finding it where it was but I'll keep digging.

Hi All,
Some local owners of the LEGO Robot Inventor 51515 sets contacted me after
they were uncertain about some aspects of setting up their set.
To help them I put some lighthearted "Absolute Beginner" startup
tutorial/demonstrations on the web at www.DrG4.net. These cover downloading
the app., finding containers that might be suitable for the pieces, and how
to update the hub and motors.
Just for fun, I also added building a tiny robot, and put up the first part
of a LEGO Scratch "Challenge" using that robot.
If there is interest, I could add more "Challenges" in Scratch & Python,
for use when those 5 huge incredible robots have been built. :-)
Like all of my stuff, everything is free.
Keep safe (Tasmania has fortunately been free from COVID for about 6
months),
Season's greeting to you all,
Graeme.

Hi Elaine,

Wow, I haven't used Google Groups or this legoengineering group for a long time myself, so I'm in the same "hope this goes through" as you.

I did inventory for EV3 at a school a few years ago and have what I think you need so you clearly don't have to reinvent the wheel.  There are a few different ways to approach the task, depending on how many kits you have, whether the kits are still in the red bins they came in  or were parted out, how old the kids are, etc.

I'm going to try to email you directly so we can get the details.

Walt

Hi Elaine,

Not sure if this is what you mean, but BrickLink has a list and you can order directly from them https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=45544-1

Kind regards,

Kerry

Here's what I use.  I simply copied the diagram sheets for pairs for of students.  They mark on the sheet any missing pieces and turn it in when finished.  I also have the same thing for NXT kits and the Simple Machines Kit.

Hi Elaine,

This is the checklist form we use to maintain our kits. I believe it’s a modified hybrid of various examples that have been floating around since the NXT days! Our helpers put a tick if parts are correct, or write the number of parts present if things are missing. It makes it pretty easy to track missing parts.

Hope it helps.

 

Regards,
