The frame looks very nice.

Since I'm assuming that you would expect hits from the back of the robot and not the top, I'm wondering why you are drilling your lighning holes in that direction (horizontal face) rather than on the vertical faces of that box tubing.

P.S. PM me and we can do some collaborating here in NH
