Actually, it may be that you can. If it's a fastener it's on the additional hardware list and is unlimited. As I recall if it holds two or more parts in FIXED relation to one another, it's a fastener. But I'd check with one of the technical reps at FIRST before I based my robot around it.

You'd be suprised what can be a fastener!

: Will,

: No, you can't legally grab a muffler clamp and modify it to mount your motor.

: But, you can use approved materials (on Additional Hardware List or out of Small Parts, Inc.) to make your own clamps that look just like the muffler clamps.

: Good luck,
: Andy B.
