Re: Mounting the Electrical parts on the robot

For several years now we have used a punched aluminum sheet available from McMaster. I believe the holes are 1/4". It is light and allows us to tywrap everything in place in case we need to rapidly replace a component. It also allows for tywrapping all the wiring down. It may not be pretty but it gets the job done and allows for cooling air to move through the robot.
