At week 0 one of the inspectors (who is also the lead at one of the regionals) told us we will need guards for our robot to pass inspection.

We are just making a bunch of plastic disks that will slide on the axles on either side of the sprockets. They are large enough to extend past the chain and stiff even though they are fairly thin. They are held in place by the sprocket and either the frame or a collar. This way they spin loose on the axle in case you bump up against it.

Maybe I'll post pictures later.
