Re: Got Weight?

If you have a lot of lexan on your bot, you may want to invest in a hole saw bit. Example, we had a lot of lexan on our bot...we weighed in at a cool 128 lbs. After removing un needed metal and making our bot very holy, we are down to 89lbs (and fast) :-)

Just remember that structural support is very important. Often you can drill holes as needed, provided you know what you are drilling into.

Good luck!
