Re: nonweight and usable

ok here is a good way to solve problems... lexan...not plexi. cause plexi shatters.

to make your electronics under cover, take some 1/16" lexan and use that. if you are so desperate on weight that hardware would set you over, use zipties to secure the lexan to the bot(if it takes a hit, the ties will break and will not break your electronics). also, to prevent ball running overs, take some 1/4" lexan and use a heat gun to bend it then screw it to your chassis where the balls are likely to come into contact, the bent lexan will actually shoot a ball away when it is hit.
