Re: 80/20 Inc.

I don't think we have ever built a robot without at least a little 80/20 in it.

This year it was a couple cross braces and we also used it in an extended pickup we added after our first regional. The slots and their adjustability are great for adding devices post-build.

It is great for prototyping and we use it every year for that purpose. We have been using some of the same sticks and hardware for over 10 years. It's re-usability is one of it's big benefits.
