Re: Circular Bumpers
While I can't comment on the merits of this specific team, a circular robot frame allows the maximum area inside the perimeter limits, which also allows the maximum area for a catcher.
Soaking the plywood in water overnight and then clamping it to a form and allowing it to dry would be a way to construct the curved plywood. Pool noodles and fabric are flexible, though attaching would still require some work (think attaching fabric on a round seat cushion)
