Re: Building your playing field....and how long it takes
 

does anyone know the dimensions of the scoring tetras? i have searched and was only able to find the center goal and regular goal.

Yeah, we've made our own clovers also ;) And to answer the previous post..there should be some type of blue prints in your kit...atleast thats what other team members on our team have said.

can i just ask what is lexan?
is it that stuff which you heat and then it can be moulded around things or am i completely wrong?

Re: Building your playing field....and how long it takes
 

Yes, it is. Lexan is a brand name for polycarbonate. Which is the kind of sheet plastic commonly found on FIRST robots. Acrylic plastic is also used but not as desirable because when it breaks it usually shatters.

One person (igrowrobots) asked on Friday about the dimensions of the tetras.

Hopefully you found the official answer by now, but if not, they're 2'6" on an edge. The official drawing of a tetra is located HERE on the FIRST web site.

The same for the goals is HERE

The center "raised" goal specs are HERE

And the "vision" tetras are defined HERE

Lastly, if you want to make your own tetra joining "clovers" out of some plastic or metal material, the specs for just the clover part are HERE
