Re: Custom Intake Rollers

Like others have said, BaneBot wheels are awesome. Back in 2008 (before Banebot had wheels, I believe) we did custom rollers - plastic wheels with some sort of foamy rubber glued on. It was a huge mess though - the rubber was constantly coming off in chunks, and we had to have a couple spare sets of wheels so we could swap them out and fix them with new rubber. I would definitely go with a more off-the-shelf solution!
