Re: 80/20 chassis

1712 has used 80/20 extrusion systems for 3 years. Search cd media for 1712 and you'll find some chassis pictures. The amount you need varies based on manipulators, etc but I'd be glad to elaborate more if you'd like. For connectors we use the smaller drop in t-nuts and hidden corner connectors. We used to use the plates, etc...less expensive but more weight/space. We purchase all of it from Mcmaster-Carr. Let me know if you want part numbers, etc and I'll get you some info.
