Re: Is powder coating and annodizing worthwhile?

It seems that most people are adbising to anodize/powdercoat if you have time. This is good advice, but depending on the resources for your team, it may not be the right choice. My team has reasonable resources, I would consider us fortunate, but we are slow when it comes to building and designing. We've only ever anodized once, and that was for our swerve modules in 2009. For us, anodizing is a ice to have, but we know the build season is short, and until we improve our schedule, we go into a build season assuming we won't anodize.

It's really a matter of what's right for your team. Karthik would tell you to analyze your team's resources, and make sure you don't try what you aren't capable of. This is great advice.
