Sorry for the poor image quality.

Those parts are a thing of beauty. What thickness of metal did you use? Looks like 3/8"?


Here's some of the various machining we did last build season, everything is .120" aluminum cut out using a laser.
These are parts for 1038's feeder system we cut out for them:

This is a prototype uni-body chassis. It's a single piece of aluminum cut out and bent using an automatic break and welded with a robotic welder:

And this is our 2013 bot towards the end of the build season, most of the machining was in the shooter, I couldn't find a picture of just the shooter only.
