Welding on a completed robot.
We have a 95% completed robot (wooh!) but we need to weld a brace at the top of our ball hopper. We are welding AL, in two different places. The question is, do I need to dismount the section I want to weld, or can I weld it in place. The issue is what to do about the cRio. To remove the cRio is a 2 hour task. I can pull the boards from the device and disconnect the power connections.

Thanks!
Foster
