Re: crate design and construction

yes, we have re-used our crate, so the height is large enoguh to accomodate any robot we're going to build. I would do the same, if for no other reason than not knowing what design you will use for '05. As a generall rule, a margine of 3-5 inches arount the footprint of each item would probably serve your purposes (you'd have to build it right and be able to take off the side walls, which you'd want to do anyway). You also might want to make a fair sized spot to throw spares and other things in...That should work. Worst comes to worse though, you could transport the tools another way.
