Very interesting video!

I have kind of a random question that was brought to mind by watching your video..

Our team built a practice field using FIRST's low cost field perimeter plans and have found it to be too weak to use effectively. It is quite easy for a robot to push against the wall and move/bend it more than the competiton field. We were planning on just framing up some plywood to the correct dimensions to make a sturdier practice field. I noticed your team did the same in the video. We don't want to over-do it and have the field be to heavy to transport for demos and the like, but we also don't want to go to light and run into the same problem as before.

What thickness plywood did you use?
What dimension lumber did you use to frame?
Do you like your field, is it sturdy enough?
Any advice or pointers that you could give would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.
