will totes be damaged by repeated lifting?
One of our three designs for a lifting mechanism is by lifting under the tote's handle on the SHORT end. (The Ri3d team did this.)

Do we think the totes will hold up if lots of teams do this? Will the lifting handle break? Has anyone experienced failure of the totes from lifting in this way?

Any opinions on this will be welcome.
