Re: pic: Battered, but still going strong

I'm with Daniel_LaFleur. Thin, machined-away, unprotected sheet metal? What did you expect to happen if the corner of a 150 lb robot hits it at 10-12 FPS???

Obviously wouldn't look as cool covered by a bumper, seems that the decision was made that looks are more important than strength..
