Re: Bumper easy attachment?

I did a quick sketch of what our brackets have looked like in the past. Angle stock attaches to the bumper itself while the square stock is mounted on the robot, we use this stock to build most of our frame. A drop pin then goes through all three pieces holding it in place. Usually a long section of bumper has two to three of these while a shorter bumper has two.

Since I can't get the image to upload here is the dropbox public link:
