Cool design. Can't wait to see it live. Your welds look great.
Are the omni wheels linked through the tubing, or are they unpowered?

They are on a dead axle made of a shoulder bolt so they are unpowered. They assist with turning and stability on a West Coast Drivetrain.

Not sure which is front or back, so I'll assume for this post that the open frame side is presumably a pickup and therefore the "front". Are you planning to have your center of gravity significantly to the rear of the center axle? If not, you'll be losing a lot of traction force, especially when accelerating to the rear (including braking when driving forward).

Looks Really good guys!!

Neat to see that 135 is not only building extremely functional robots, but Aesthetically appealing ones as well.

There is a lot missing on our competition bot, including the two heaviest components. The shooter and the electronics. All of our weight is in the back of our robot. I will upload another teaser photo in a few days to show off our shooter, gear manipulator, hanging mechanism, and ball collector. Every year, we always build 2 robots, a practice robot and a competition robot. Our practice robot is pretty much finished and we are currently in the process of remaking everything for competition robot (which is why this teaser is mainly just our frame). Stay tuned for our robot reveal video which will be posted when 6-weeks ends!

Same to you guys! Your powder coated frame looks great! Best of luck to your team this season!
