Re: Rookie Team 3729's minibot

First of all we use 3/8 inch OD tubing on a 3/8 inch shaft. That means the tubing is going to have to stretch quite a bit, but once its on it is not going to slip. We put it on two ways. The first way is to run really hot tap water over the tubing and then push it on the shaft. At competition you don't have hot water. We wipe the shafts with Clorox disenfectant sheets (get tem at the grocery store) and push the tubing on. The liquid is probably alconol. Doesn't work as well as hot water but you can do it in the pits.
