Re: Bumpers

We have used Locking T-Nuts for three years running and have never had any trouble mounting the bumpers to our robot. You have to drill a slightly oversized hole through the bumper and put the T-Nut in the hole from the outside of the plywood before you fasten the pool noodles/fabric to it and pound them in with a hammer. Then you through bolt from your frame/mounting bracket on the robot. Just do a search for T-Nut or Locking T-Nut. We buy ours at Lowe's
