Re: At What Point Does Your Team Get Your Robot Anodized?

We will get it anodized/powdercoated when there are no more engineering challenges to tackle.

Brushed/Clean aluminum with laser cut acrylic for flair can look pretty good without sacrificing time to send out parts. We'd have to be at the point where we were making 2 "final" bots and sending one out before I'd consider it. As it stands, we build at least 2 working robots a year, and this year are going for 4... and we still won't be powdercoating or anodizing.
