Re: Bumper Question

Per R26,
Quote:
Additionally, any gap between the backing material and the frame

A. must not be greater than ¼ in. deep, or
B. not more than 8 in. wide.
You can have a gap deeper than 1/4", so long as it is less than 8" wide along the frame perimeter. The way the kitbot is assembled, the gaps you pointed out there are perfectly legal, as they are less than 8" wide.
