Re: Tube scoring idea

A glancing at the field drawings and doing a little arithmetic, the front edge of the hoop is something like 12.5" behind the front edge of the fender. If you figure your robot's bumper eats up 3.5" of your 14" extension, then your tube will be 2" short of the front edge of the rim. Something to think about in your design.

Also, this thread title seemed incredibly outdated when I first saw it. Scoring tubes is sooo 2011.
