Re: pic: 1714 Polycarb prototype Crab Drive (backdrop1)

Hey, did you guys ever replace the top and bottom plates with polycarb? It looks like you're still using the laser cut acrylic parts, which would be a problem (it will shatter like no other). But once that happens, I like it!

Just a thought, maybe the bottom circle would be best made from Acetal? Just to reduce the friction and other drive forces... You might want to run that by AJ, Mr. Laabs, and/or Dad first though.
