I'm really interested in seeing what sorts of results you all have with the sheet metal.

We're using .19" sheet metal for our frame, with some beefier stuff mixed in here and there. I was a little scared of going thinner than that. We'll see how it shapes up in a few weeks, I guess.

Good luck.
Sheet metal is what the body of your automobile is made of. By golly I think what your talking about is honest-to-goodness 3/16" PLATE. That will do just dandy for any robot is my shop.
