Lol...Now I know exactly what "Special Personal Project" I am going to order that wonderful tank chain tread for now! I'm going to turn my living room coffee table into a Stronghold Defense crossing capable coffee table. It may be too heavy for our robot, but it surely isn't for my future coffee table bot.

Our living room is small (the house overall is large though), and we have a matching very comfortable loveseat and large couch and a chair that are all seating position reclining, so everyone is always moving the coffee table a couple inches at a time, all about the center of the room (just a little bit, but I'm always straightening it up later-"anal type A" that I am), as feet get very close to it when reclining.

They will be able to move it about using a tethered controller and their smart devices, laptops, or ipads.

Thank's for that idea. (I would have never thought of doing that....ever!)

Just wait until my glass & tile squares topped wooden coffee table is going over and through all the team edition of the defenses with the practice bot before season end (besides the Low Bar of course), that the students have been putting together all week. (It certainly won't be FRC Legal, as it will certainly violate the 120" perimeter frame rule (I think I will just mount a nicely stained marching dark cherry wooden electronics shelf about a foot below the glass top), and I'm not putting the bumpers on it, or it certainly won't fit our living room space again. (Though I admit that it would look really cool w/ legal 8" each direction reversible Blue/Red bumpers perfectly in the bumper zone on each corner & our Team 60 numbers, so maybe I will notch the wooden legs so they can be added or removed on a whim).
