We'll need to make sure that vertical board is securely mounted to the tower. This may be more difficult than you anticipate, given that it'll need to stand off by at least 2 inches and only attach on the sides (the backs of the tower box tubing are where the rollers ride). I guess we can work it out somehow.

What, you mean you didn't like having to stick your hand down into the guts of the robot and fish around to find anything in the electronics?

On a side note, I read this thread last night and remember seeing your post, but I was so out of it at the time that I didn't even realize that it was you, or that it was our robot being discussed... :-/
