Hi Steve,
Thanks for the picture, it was very helpful. We fixed the model per your picture and it ends up exactly at the edge of the mat
over the black border. I have attached 2 pictures of both sides of the model, does this look right?
Thanks,
Cedric D'Costa

Hello everyone,
The Pump model does need to be attached to the North wall.
As stated in the Field Setup document, "The Mat is smaller than the playing surface by design." Step 3 of the Field Mat Placement section, says to align the mat so there is no gap at the South wall, and equal gaps at the East and West walls. So there is going to be a gap at the North wall. Teams--remember that the North wall gap may vary a little between your practice table and a tournament table.

Thank you VA/DC FLL for organizing the very informative worshop in Reston, VA on Friday.I had brought up this question there as the worshop table Pump system model (similar to my team) had not stuck the model to the north border wall.
In order to stick the model to the wall, it needs to be slightly outside the mat. There is a small gap between the mat and the north wall and the mat itself has a black border. In order to keep the model on the mat we would need to add additional Lego pieces or something to fill the gap and have the model make contact with the wall.
The field set up guide does not offer information regarding this. However on page 13 it apppears as though the model is slightly outside the mat.
Referees, coaches please repond.
Thank you,Cedric D'CostaCoach Team# 18179

We are trying to figure out how the pump target system is attached to the north wall of the table using dual locks as mentioned in field setup guide. Any suggestion?
Thanks!Rajesh ShahCoach Team #31778
