Re: Can we use Fiber Glass?
Yup fiberglass is an awesome material to use. Its not quite as easy to machine and work with as aluminum and other metals but it has quite a few advantages. Its probably the highest performance material a FIRST team can use due to its relatively low cost and superb characteristics. Its just harder to find in useful forms than the more common building materials.
