Re: Sheet Metal

Our robot has several sheet aluminum covers/guards on it. I bent up several of them in an evening with a vise, hammer, and sheet metal brake. Aluminum is nice if you have few tools becuase it can be bent by hand somewhat. If you're going to use fasteners aluminum is good but for welding, iron is so much easer.
