Re: pic: FRC973 offseason teaser #7

The key to not having cable/rope/whatever jump off a spool is to not use a spool plain and simple. We used 25 chain to drive the first stage and then cascaded the second stage. Adam has an even cooler setup but again no spool. As you found managing rope is a pain and is why many teams this year especially avoided it in lift designs.

I am interested to see how they accomplished a similar design better then the one my team used in an effort to try to better my teams knowledge of this mechanism. I thank you guys for your comments.
