I will now work on the modifications making this a more feasible, and realistic design! For the belly-pan, would there be anything wrong with using 1/2" Birch Plywood? It would be lightened and might end up lighter than aluminum, I will find out!

I like 1/2" birch plywood, 95 has used it in robot frames for year. I would highly recommend it.
