[Al Skierkiewicz]

Bilal,
The suggested method is contained in the robot section of the rulebook. If you build your bumpers using the drawings and materials listed then your bumpers can be weighed separately from the robot. You may use you own design for fastening to the robot but make sure they are secure and easily removed for inspection and weighing. Large assemblies for mounting must be part of the robot frame and are subject to the weight limits for the class you enter. The aluminum angles are not reguired but recommended if you cannot firmly attach the fabric to the backing board. Total weight for all bumpers cannot exceed 15 pounds. Please read R37 carefully to insure compliance.
