Re: Forklift help!!!!!!

My team is also going with a forklift design this year, for the first time. We dont want to use 80/20 because it so heavy; what are alternatives for sliding linear motion devices that are still robust enough to lift a ball and a mechanism, while not being as heavy as 2.5 stages of 80/20 extrusion? thanks for the input!
