How much polycarb did you have on the bot? I calculate this to be almost 4 square feet of 1/4" polycarb - or over 700 1" holes. And since much of the polycarb used on robots is not 1/4" but 1/8" or even 1/16" - that's a lotta holes!

We weighed in at about 95 pounds last week. Everything that had been built to date, plus some raw material to estimate the remaining parts. We've since added pneumatics (and removed a motor or two) and a few other parts, and need to add a few pinch guards. We estimate we should come in 110-120.
