~Phil thank you for your response but I guess I did not make my problem clear enough. I am on a quest to engineer something for my Pre-Engineering class that will help to move the Robot "as not in shipping" around the competition arena being that we are not allowed to drive them to and from the pit area.
I am just looking for some justification for my problem, in order to properly document my work.[/quote]

675's tool-cart was specifically designed so we could put our 'bot up on top of it and wheel her around (and this even lets us take our 'bot to staging while fixing it.)

I also know that 254's bot this year could disengage the transmissions so that they could just push it around.

But most teams I've seen use carts.
