Re: [FRC Blog] Kit Hints?

Why would FIRST say "collectively 3''x3''x60''" rather than "collectively 540 cubic inches" if they were simply giving a spec for the total volume of a collection of items? I'm having a hard time buying that.

Bumper cloth and pool noodles sound reasonable. Re: the seemingly absurd amount of pool noodles that fit in the specified weight, I bet it becomes a whole lot more reasonable if you swap some of it out with plywood .
