I don't really know why we are talking about making gearboxes and pocketing and then referencing lower level teams. A little insight low level teams don't make gearboxes. They use the toughbox they scavenged off a kit bot. Overweight? You don't "pocket" or "truss" you take a drill and swiss cheese until your under weight not to mention the fact that your doing this at your one and only regional's practice day.
This whole discussion doesn't make sense. Elite teams would have 200 pound robots without pocketing. Mid level teams don't pocket unless they have to because they don't yet have the resources to make it look nice and would rather focus on better material choice and low level teams swiss cheese.
