Re: Methods of adding ballast to underweight robots

Turns out newer (past mid 1980's) pennies are actually 97.5 percent zinc and only have a 2.5 percent copper coating. Who knew?

I think either the pennies or just scrap bolts we have lying around will work. I'll have to take a look at our junk bins later this week.
