Do you have any guidelines as to tabsizes and design considerations? Or is there a proper name for tabbed construction that I could look up to find guides on this type of construction.
I have liked the idea of a well built wooden robot for a while now but have never pursued it. I am in the process of starting a new rookie team and depending on resources a wooden robot may be the easier and more reliable option. I do feel however that it will be necessary to sell the team on the idea so I was thinking building a simple chassis this summer may be an interesting project.
