Let's get some aluminum extrusions

I've been thinking that it sure would be nice
to design the structure of our robots. Welding pipe
and angles is OK, but it's ugly, messy, and difficult
to change.

There are many companies out there who provide aluminum
extruded products with assortments of fasteners that would
make the design, construction, and debug of our 'bots
more efficient.

What do the rest of you think of 'Item' - type aluminum
extrusions? (www.item-products.com)

We use them all of the time making machines here at
Delphi... and the prices are starting to get reasonable.

What are your opinions and/or other vendors who would
be interested (80/20, Parker, etc.)?

I'll be contacting FIRST about this to see what steps
need to be taken in order to get someone like this
to provide kit materials and/or approved construction
materials.

Andy B.
