I can't wait to check out the CAD (I don't have Solidworks on this computer) but I have a few questions about the bot. First, did you guys do all the painting in house? If so, what exactly did you use to paint it? In the past, when I've used spray-paint, it gets scuffed up pretty quickly (and doesn't look nearly that nice to begin with, either).

Second, could you explain the chain routing on the elevator? My team used a two-stage elevator this year in VEX with one continuous loop, and we're looking for possible new methods to experiment with for next year.

Looks amazing, as usual. Thanks for posting the CAD!

EDIT: Took a look at the CAD. Outstanding work, and like Akash said, a great learning tool! Thanks again for posting it.
