Re: Standard vs. Custom Frame

i would go custom, in the end it ends up being easer because you can diesgn it to fit the robot and not the other way around. and who needs CAD, i do everything to a 1cm for complex to 10cm for big simple components on graph paper, and the best part...you still have the design at 3:00 am ship day when the power goes out. another helpfull thing is full-scale cardboard mockup, you can never go wrong with cardboard and duct tape.
