Thanks for the link, Cory. I knew these existed but had forgotten where to look. Pretty sure I first saw them on one of your team's robots many seasons ago.
Two questions not immediately addressed at the WCP link (since my iPad doesn't run CAD): (1) what is the material? and (2) do these blocks accept FR8 bearings?

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
