very nice job thou
Thanks!

It Definately doesn't weight much, with the height on the manipulator (Only about 1/3 is shown) we wanted an extreme amount of the weight down low in the chassis. Most of the robot is either tube or extruded shapes so it should be very rigid when it is finished. I can't say it WON't bend but it should take quite a beating in the process.
