Well, my first caution is, don't build anything tht requires that tight of tolerances. There could be small variations in the lip from event to event, or from your practice field to the competition field. If you build a robot with 1/16" tolerances, and it's off by 1/8", you'll be in trouble. That being said, I believe that the lip on top was 1/2", though this is just from memory.
