On top of this. Once the build season starts figure out how you want your robot to function and how you want to implement those functions. I know from personal experience and trudging through a glorious 12 seasons so far that we've used everything from the KOP, Tubing, sheet metal, etc. It all depends on our game plan for the upcoming/current build season and what we would like to accomplish during the comp.
