Re: Measurements?

This may not be quite the answer you are looking for but one way to get measurements on just about anything in the KOP is to learn one of the CAD software packages such as Autodesk Inventor or Solidworks.

The KOP is available in Autodesk format on the Autodesk FIRSTBase website

It is also available in Solidworks format on 3dContentCentral. If you want to go the Solidworks route I recommend you PM CD user Marie Planchard.

This allows you to make any measurement you want. It is very convenient when you do not have access to the parts themselves. It also allows you to take the parts and make CAD models with them. Learning CAD would be a very useful offseason project.
