How quickly do you generally finish your robot in order to powdercoat it before the season ends?

Re: pic: Four straight seasons of glorious powder coating!
1st robot is done in about 4 weeks. 2nd bot, the one that is powdercoated is done at the end of week 5 and returns from powdercoating shop in the middle to end of week 6. Then spend 1-2 frantic days putting it back together and test it out. Having the robot at the powdercoaters for 3-4 days is really tough, but we can justify it because we have the other robot to practice and program with.

Impressive. Do you experience a noticeable increase in weight with the powder coat? If so, how much? Looks great!
