Re: how much over weight

We are just overweight (its about a half pound). We have a few more places for speed holes, so we'll find a way.

We also have the option to replace the steel 1" dia. shaft in our arm to a hollow tube. It'll lose 4 pounds but is a risky and time consuming operation. (We have a small potentiometer sprocket press-fitted on and it is in a hard place to remove. Not to mention we'll most likely bust it and need a new one.) The robot is in the crate ready to ship. Any suggestions?
