Re: Densest Building Materials

Lead is sometimes used in FRC as ballast (2009). Just don't eat it and you're fine.

Keep in mind that you *can* have a ridiculously heavy robot. Yet after a certain point, it's not worth it -- the FTC motors are very inefficient and the batteries do not charge very quickly.
